Hi,
I use ndiswrapper with wpa_supplicant. I am stuck and I can't access
to my wireless lan. I have no idea what to do next.... need some
advise
I have an Acer travelmate 4400, with turion 64.
My Wireless card is a Broadcom Corporation BCM4318:
fabre-linux ~ # lspci
06:05.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One
54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
I installed ndiswrapper (1.5) and it seems to work fine:
fabre-linux ~ # ndiswrapper -l
Installed ndis drivers:
bcmwl5 driver present, hardware present
I installed wpa_supplicant (0.4.7):
in /etc/conf.d/net.wlan0 I have:
config_wlan0=( "dhcp" )
modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dndiswrapper"
in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf, I have
update_config=1
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=2
fast_reauth=1
network={
ssid="campbellsrealm"
key_mgmt=NONE
wep_key0="1234567890"
wep_tx_keyidx=0
priority=5
auth_alg=SHARED
}
When I run "wpa_supplicant":
fabre-linux ~ # wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -D
ndiswrapper -dd
