WaveBuddy 11WP-611AL 802.11b PC Card works for me in DSL 0.7.3 HD install on a Toshiba notebook.

Required installing "make", editing a file and compiling a driver, included on CD. Ignored copious error messages. Compiling halted w/ errors re single quote, Ctrl-C'd past these.

$11.00US from http://compgeeks.com as of last week.

i have a Belkin F5D7000 wireless 802.11G
by defaults dsl 0.7.3 don't recognice it,
the only way that i have seen in internet is via ndiswrapper, but i ddin't tried yet

there are modules/drivers to make dsl recognize it? if there are?
need i to recompile the kernel to support this drivers, or can i do that without

danini, I'm in the same boat with a new project. I need to remaster a DSL or knoppix to support a Wireless G card, probably using NDISwrapper. I don't think you have to recompile the kernel, but you may have to compile the ndiswrapper stuff for DSL using Knoppix 3.3 from 9/24/2003.

google for KNOPPIX_V3.3-2003-09-24-EN.iso

It looks like there is a .deb of the ndiswrapper package avail. Look at ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net There is also an option to compile it with make-kpkg. Need to read up on it more before I start messing around to get it to work. It would help if I had the card so I could start.

Hi all,

Is there a way to get a Linksys WCP11 V4.0 card to work with DSL? That's the card I have for the Compaq Pressario Laptop 1800 I've got DSL installed on. Or, does anyone know where I can get a Netgear MA401 V2.5 card? I can't seem to find anyplace to buy older network cards.

Thanks,
Doug
