Did you do this: 2. Install your windows driver ------------------------------ Download the Windows XP drivers, unpack it and locate the .inf for your card. Run ndiswrapper -i to install the driver > ndiswrapper -i </path/to/inffile.inf> This copies all necessary files to /etc/ndiswrapper and creates the config files for your card. After installing you can run > ndiswrapper -l to see the status of your installed drivers. If you have installed the correct driver you should see something like this: Installed ndis drivers: bcmwl5 present Where "present" means that you have a PCI-device present that can be used with the driver bcmwl5.
