ndiswrapper without internet access, slow firefox
发表于 : 2005-03-31 22:16
many people access their internet over wlan, so it can be tricky to set up the wlan without internet access...
Only if http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/docu ... diswrapper doesnt work for you This method got my netgear ma111 working in no time at all. Download the ndiswrapper and ndiswrapper-utils .deb packages, and save them on a floppy, or on a partition that is accessable by linux.
I got this from azz on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php? ... is+wrapper
Put the ndiswrapper and ndiswrapper-utils .deb packages in /usr/src
then type into Applications->System Tools->Root Terminal
cd /usr/src
dpkg -i ndiswrapper*.deb
dpkg -i ndiswrapper-utils*.deb
edit /etc/hotplug/blacklist and add:
prism2_usb
p80211
To avoid the modules being loaded (they interfere with ndiswrapper)
cd to your wireless-device's windowsxp-driver directory (on a CD for example)
ndiswrapper -i NETMA111.INF
modprobe ndiswrapper
Then, use the network utility to configure your interface, under System->Administration->Networking (in gnome 2.10)
ndiswrapper -m
To load automatically at startup
you may want to type "about:config" into the address bar of firefox if loading webpages is slow, when youve got internet-access, to speed it up, filter "network.dns.disable.IPv6" -> toggle to "true"
