Hello all, First of all, I'm not exactly a Linux guru, so please don't be too harsh ;)
I have recently bought a wireless USB NIC: The Linksys by Cisco WUSB54GC version 3. I would like to use it on a Debian system. I have found some docs telling me that I should use the Ralink rt73usb driver, because it is build upon the RT2501USB chipset. Other documents [1] told me it uses the RT2800U chipset and that I should use the rt2870sta drivers instead. I have tried both these drivers, following these [2][3] tutorials on the Debian wiki. However, when I connect the USB adapter, iwconfig doesn't show any other devices than my default lo and eth0 interfaces. Therefore, I think the drivers are not loaded properly. (I have tried loading the modules using modprobe) Does anybody have a solution to this problem? Greetings, Eric Spreen PS When using the rt73usb module, I had kernel version 2.6.26-2-686. When I tried the rt2870sta module, I installed version 2.6.29-bpo.2-686. Furthermore I'm using a standard Lenny distribution, without a graphical interface. (I'm planning to install LXDE, because I want a lightweight GUI) [1] http://www.modem-help.co.uk/Linksys/WUSB54GC-v3-Wireless-G-Compact-USB-Adapter.html [2] http://wiki.debian.org/rt2870sta [3] http://wiki.debian.org/WiFi/rt73 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
