Linksys WPC54gx ver2/ Wireless problems-Laptop

[kb2qqm]

Hi Everybody,

I am new to Kubuntu and am trying to get the system installed for a friend.

Can anyone help me get this running?

The card inserts and lights up. The wireless card recognizes many wireless networks including mine. It will not connect even though I have entered my WPA password. It will not even connect to my neighbor who has an open connection. Once in a while like 1 in 25 tries the little antenna pops up and it works...and then locks up the system until I pull the card out. I can also connect fine with the wired line from the router plugged in.

I loaded the ".inf" files into the Windows Wireless Drivers program and pointed to it. It recognizes the hardware from the .inf file but will not connect.

I also tried loading the drivers through the Program "Hardware drivers" to point the system to the files but it will not let me select anything..

So I'm kind of dead in the water.

I am a beginner to Linux and need line by line instructions.

Any takers ?

Here are the particulars:

IBM Thinkpad A20m
Linux 2.6.28-15-generic

Linksys Notebook adapter (WPC54GX ver 2)

I wasn't clear on why two different lspci outputs? The first doesn't show a wireless card.

The second appears to be one of the least well supported cards under linux. This is about the best I could find on it for now.
Welcome to Ubuntu: HOWTO: Get Airgo-Based WiFi Enabled Using ndiswrapper

[waterhead]

If you run my script more than once, it amends the existing file. That doesn't explain why the wireless wasn't in the first lspci output. Unless it is a pcmcia card, and wasn't inserted.

[kb2qqm]

Thanks for looking at my post.

The laptop has 2 slots for wireless cards.

I had two exta cards laying around.

One is the Linksys WPC54GX

the other in the Dlink DWL-G650

The Linksys card lights up when I put it in either slot, and with the Netani.inf loaded in
the Windows Wireless Drivers program..and will show me all the networks around my house. I can even select my WPA-PSK password. I have even tried to connect to my neighbors open wireless no no avail. The lights flick away but no connections-EVER.


the Dlink card with the newer GPLUS.inf file that I found will see all the networks too.

Last night after monkeying around for hours, it finally connected for like 10 minutes, and that was after the Network settings window kept prompting for me enter my password, which happened like 4 times...after that it connected. I surfed around for 5 minutes and then restarted the laptop to see if it would hold the new settings.
It did not even though it could "see" my wireless router.

My Airport Express Wireless router is plenty strong and my iMac receives it's strong signal.

I have to say that the Linksys and the Dlink cards have different "ears".

The linksys card in map scan mode shows a great signal..

The Dlink card in map scan mode shows the dlink not to "hear" very good on receive.

So tonight I am starting over..and going to uninstall all the drivers that have been loaded using the Konsole.

Can you help me to erase the drivers via the Konsole so I can start over...

What commands can I use in the terminal to erase the drivers so I can do a clean install?

thanks..

[kb2qqm]

The driver that I found that worked half way down the page was "the original" which is different than the one I have on the Manufacturers CD.

help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/DWL-G650%2B

Dwl-G650+_rev_Bx_Drv_v202

Just google it

The forum not letting me post links with less than 15 posts !?

[kb2qqm]

Sorry, I did not answer your question.


There are 2 slots.

Sometimes I plug in the Dlink in the top slot and sometimes I use the lower slot. Hoping that it will make a difference. Same with the Linksys card.
Of course though one at a time.

I just can't figure out how each card, after I load the driver, can sense the network in map mode...but just can't connect to it. It's driving me nuts.. It's like window shopping, but when you try to go in and make the purchase, the front door is locked !
And they are sitting there waving... Here I am....too bad you can't connect...!

AHHHHHHH !!!!!!!

[waterhead]

That really wasn't a question. I was explaining to reed9 why there may have been duplicate entries in the output of my script.

You need to try and set up just one of the cards. It is difficult to help you if you keep switching them. I see one of them is am Airgo, but what is the other? The name on the outside means nothing. Put it in and run the script again, but first delete the old WirelessSetup.txt file.

There may be a better driver than NDISwrapper for the other card.

I will use the Dlink DWL-650 Card

H/W:B2
F/W: 2.20

I have the card plugged in the top slot...

I deleted the old...and reloaded the new scan....

That card doesn't seem to be detected properly. This looks like how your system sees it.

02:00.0 Non-VGA unclassified device [0000]: Gammagraphx, Inc. (or missing ID) Device [0000:0002] (rev 0)

You can try inserting it in the other slot, then run only the lspci command to see if anything changes. It could have dirty contacts, so clean them with contact cleaner.

Does this card work OK in Windows?
