Re: How to install drivers on linux for NEWBS
Please provide the model number of the D-link.
Basically, if a native driver won't work, then a program called ndiswrapper will work using the windows driver. But first, we need to determine what chip you have in your wireless card. |

Re: How to install drivers on linux for NEWBS
Gajorange more info is needed to help you. ;^)
What O/S are you trying to get this wireless card working on ? Can you be more detailed about the wireless card ? [exact card name and model number/S.N. number] Then we can find out if the D-Link card has Linux support. NDISwrapper may be the fix or it may not, more info will be needed for your issue.
