Just moved from Mandriva 2010.1 to Ubuntu 10.10 and am having problems with the wifi. It connects fine, but tends to grind to a halt every now and then. I always have this problem with Ubuntu... hence me migrating to Mandriva in the past. My card uses the Atheros AR5007G Wifi chipset.
I'd quite like to get this fixed. So, using ndiswrapper, I installed the windows drivers.
I see you have an Atheros Chipset and I recently just had a similar problem with my Atheros Communications Inc. AR8152 v2.0 Fast Ethernet. I found a solution on this forum. If you go to the thread ... [by histamineblkr]
...I swear by all that anyone has ever held holy, I'm gonna hurl. Especially the ones with the rtl8192cu chipset (I've found several at Newegg with this, thanks to the wikidevi website), which I've only been able to get to work consistently with 3.2.0-0.bpo.1-amd64.Right now I'm looking at this wifi card for my desktop, which, according to wikidevi, has the Atheros AR9285
on V2.0 boards, the "atheros" chipset nic isn't found at all during install or post install. This was tested on ubuntu 8.10 and 9.10
Qualcomm is buying wireless chipset maker Atheros for $3.1 billion, in a move designed to help the company grow beyond its traditional business as a technology supplier for mobile phones and deeper into such areas as smartphones and tablets....
I have Kismet installed on my HP Pavilion DV7 Notebook which is using an Atheros network card. In etc/kismet/kismet.conf I don't know what to enter in order to get the program up and running.
I've just installed Ubuntu 12.04.2.
Wired internet is no problem.
When i go to additional drivers (when i'm wired conected) i don't get a list of proprietary drivers.
So i want to search the driver by my self but can't find im.
Can sombody help?
