http://ubuntuforums.org – Hey everyone, I just downloaded Ubuntu and installed fine, installed Ndiswrapper for my 050d:6050 device, aaaand it doesn't work.

Code: bcmwlhigh6 : driver installed     Device (050d:6050) present So if someone could help me out with that, that would be great, Thanks. (Hardware)

I just got a fresh install of 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04 and I had no Internet. So I got ndiswrapper(just ndiswrapper, not utils or anything), I downloaded the drivers for my adapter (050d:6050) from the Belkin support website, and installed them. I installed the Vista drivers, did all the iwconfig, modprobing, etc... And I got nothing.

Hello, I posted yesterday but post apparently did not get posted, or was moderated but I was not informed. Anyway here is more info WIFI usb adapter by trendnet TEW-648UB Apparently detected but did not work. installed the provided windows drivers with ndiswrapper and all seems to be fine:

Hello. I've read a lot about wireless network cards but I haven't found something similiar to my problem. I've a belkin wireless card F5D7000tt and its driver bcmwl5.inf. I think I've correctly installed it because when I use "ndiswrapper -l" i get: WARNING: all config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future realease.

I want to use my window driver in Ubuntu, because the ubuntu driver doesn't activate. When I install the driver (broadcom bcm43) a window pops up: Unable to see if hardware is present. Then I click OK. Then underneath the driver is the text: Hardware present: yes. But it doesn't work.

I identified the device ID of my USB Wi-Fi dongle...

I downloaded a recommended driver and proceeded to install it on ndiswrapper, then I checked it was successful...

[root@localhost ndis5]# ndiswrapper -l athfmwdl : driver installed device (1385:4251) present netwg11t : driver installed
