[Yoshiro]

Heyaz, I'm pretty new to Linuxes and I'm having problems with running ndiswrapper.
I have installed it but I get this error saying:

Permission denied at /usr/bin/ndiswrapper-1.9
line 194

So.. what does this error mean and what can I do to fix my problem? Thank you everyone in advance.

In case it makes a different I'm trying to get a NETGEAR WPN311 USB wireless working.

Hello and Welcome.

Check out the sticky on wireless setup.

Searching around, it looks like your wireless adapter may have an Atheros AR5004G chipset, which should work with the ath5k driver. But we'd need to confirm that, so again, wireless sticky.

But the thing is that my Computer doesn't use a Card for wireless. it uses a USB.

If you read the sticky, you'll see that the lsusb command will give us info on usb network adapters.

Yoshiro,

Try:

sudo lsusb

This will give them more insight to help you.

In the future you can always add "--help" to a command to get more info, it help to learn. for example type:

sudo lsusb --help

And then I should copy the results?

Well, it does look like ndiswrapper is the only option right now. Did you say you already have the Windows drivers?

sudo ndiswrapper -i /path/to/driver.inf
sudo depmod -a
sudo ndiswrapper -m
sudo modprobe ndiswrapper

Where /path/to/driver.inf is the path to the windows driver.

To load at boot, append the line ndiswrapper to /etc/modules/
