hi guys,

I have a linksys wrt54gl like a router eth/wi-fi and I have a notebook with an integrated wi-fi card

I have to configure wireless network but I have a little problem and I'm here to ask anyone if can resolve this problem

after a little pursuit on internet I have found that the right way seemed ndiswrapper,so I had compiled it and I have installed .INF file,driver from windows in my system ,so this is the result:

/usr/sbin/ndiswrapper -l
bcmwl5 : driver installed
device (14E4:4320) present (alternate driver: ssb)
em500ag : driver installed

I didn't understand why I have installed also em500ag becouse bcmwl5 would be the driver for my wi-fi card

[root@Tx]# /sbin/lspci | grep Wireless
00:09.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03)

Then I have installed Linuxant driver that I have uninstalled immediately becouse they asked me a license,but really driver seemed correctly loaded but now that I had uninstalled linuxant I can't load my wi-fi driver anymore

/sbin/iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

wmaster0 no wireless extensions.

wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:""
Mode:Managed Channel:0 Access Point: Not-Associated
Tx-Power=0 dBm
Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr=2346 B
Encryption key:off
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0

I have to load ndiswrapper by hand whenever I should need it becouse at boot of my system ndiswrapper is not loaded automatically

then I have installed wirlan assistant or wirlassistant how you prefer and it found my access point,but now anymore and I don't now if is a problem by linuxant ( how I believe)

How can I resolve this problem?

thanks very mutch

Can you check kernel messages using dmesg
This may be because of firmware issues also.

now I had found a how-to and I try to install my driver in that mode

I didn't have understand what you intend with " this may be because of a firmware issues also"

with dmesg I don't get anything that can halp me , it seem to me
