    • Driver-and-Installation:1. Copy /windows/inf/MN120.inf, system/MN120-50.sys system/MN120-51.sys system/MN120.cat to a pwd. 2. cp MN120-50.sys to MN120-51.sys. This is A trick to make sure MN120-50.sys is use instead of MN120-51.sys. 3. ndiswrapper -i MN120.inf; ndiswrapper -l; dmesg; modprobe ndiswrapper; ifconfig wlan0 up; pump -i wlan0. Vala. Thanks this wonderful tool ndiswrapper for making the MN120 works under linux (DSL 3.1RC3).

    • Other: Fedora Core 6, ndiswrapper versions: utils: 1.9, driver: 1.39
    • Installation: run ndiswrapper -i mn710.inf, this installs the .inf file to /etc/ndiswrapper/mn710 but does not move the .sys files. Copy both .sys files to this location manually. Next, type “ndiswrapper -l” to verify that the mn710 driver is installed and the device is present. At this point, plug in (or re-plug in) the USB connector to the device. You should see the “Power” and “Wireless” lights come on. Follow the rest of the directions starting from the “Configure Interface” section onwards in the ndiswrapper installation guide to complete the install.

    • Driver-and-Installation
    • *Option 1: Use a homegrown driver INF file that I have created, along with the same SYS file from above. It has the benefit that you will not have to create any symlinks. I’m hosting it for your convenience at http://ankhcraft.com/drivers/mn720-ankh.zip Please note that I do not provide any warranty for this INF file that I have created, express or implied. All I can say is that it works for me, and I’ve used this card heavily (with this driver).
    • *Option 2: Use Dell’s TrueMobile? 1300 driver. I’m hosting it for your convenience at http://ankhcraft.com/drivers/bcmwl5.zip Please note that the pciids are not the same for this card, so, following driver installation into ndiswrapper, you’ll need to create some symlinks, like so (as root): ln -s 14e4:4320:1028:0002.conf /etc/ndiswrapper/14e4:4325:1414:0003.conf ln -s 14e4:4325:1414:0003.conf /etc/ndiswrapper/14e4:4325.conf
    • *Option 3: Use Microsoft’s driver from the cd (or optionally from http://www.network-drivers.com/drivers/141/141400.htm) Please be warned that this driver does not play nice with Linux hosted NDIS emulation wrappers in general. In order to get this driver work with ndiswrapper specifically, you must make sure you do NOT have the card plugged into the cardbus slot when you insert the ndiswrapper module. You’ll get a kernel panic if you do, and then you’re toast. Plug the card in afterward. After this, it works wonderfully. Also, it is worth mentioning that the Microsoft driver is known to be unstable when used with LinuxAnt’s driverloader. You may experience random system lockups, even though you may avoid the kernel panic mentioned above. I would suggest that you stay away from this driver under Linux. joe@ankhcraft.com - ankhcraft

    • Chipset: Prism54 (Intersil 3886 and NetChip NET2280)

    • Driver: Netgear windows driver Version: Netgear, Inc.,03/03/2004, 1.0.8.4 from http://www.Netgear.com
    • Other: Works well. To get the driver, use cabextract on the .exe, then unshield on the data1.cab. WPA-PSK TKIP worked with wpa-supplicant 0.2.4. Used kernel SuSE 2.6.5-7.104-default. The driver locked the machine when connected to an OHCI controller, but worked fine with EHCI, on a SiS 650 chipset. TCP throughput was apx 7Mbps, which is low, but CPU usage was not maxed out as it is under windows XP on test machine. ndiswrapper is CVS top of tree from 23rd August 2004. There is a native driver for Prism54 that is working on USB support. View its status at Prism54.org As same as you read above, but I use Fedora 3 with Kernel 2.6.11-14. Use ndiswrapper version 1.1 from 5rd March 2005. I work with beta-driver from Netgear (WG111 SW1-2 Beta 13) in managed mode with no encryption. Encryction (WEP) doesn’t work on my machine (Gericom X5 Force) yet, but I am still working on it. Try to configure via system-config-network (the fedora gui) with hotplugd started, so you can plug in and work. Attention!!! don’t activate the item “active on boot” because hotplug doesn’t run at boot-time.

    • OS: Damn Small Linux 3.2 Kernel 2.4.26
    • Other: Using ndiswrapper v1.8

The ndis drivers are in the ndis directory. Used kernel Running Slackware v10.1 (kernel 2.6.10) ndiswrapper ver 1.1rc3 . There is a native driver for Prism54 that is working on USB support. View its status at http://www.prism54.org Prism54.org
    • Other: With the driver for Sitecom WL-142, this device supports WPA2, keeps the device “alive” (with driver from Netgear, device stops working after a while) and correct some connection problem : http://www.sitecom.com/showdownload.php?id=1928. Note that the device ID for Sitecom is different, so you need to create alias for it for WG111, e.g., with ‘ndiswrapper -d 0846:4240 wlanuig’, after which ‘ndiswrapper -l’ should show ‘hardware present’.
    • Other: Works nearly well (several daily crashes in Summer 2005).
    • Distro-specific: Debian Sarge 2.6.8.1, Ndiswrapper 0.10 Distro-specific: Debian Sid 2.6.8.X, Ndiswrapper 0.12+1.0rc2-1, without rfmon

This works for a while, but after ~5 minutes of ssh/file copy traffic, the machine hung and had to be rebooted (reproducibly).
    • Driver: (BAD) Netgear wg111v2 1.40 (?) from http://kbserver.Netgear.com/release_notes/D102948.asp (labeled as 2.00 on http://kbserver.Netgear.com/products/wg111v2.asp) - DriverVer 5.1213.06.0327. Ndiswrapper will load this driver successfully and find the device, but iwlist scans will fail and the device won’t associate.
    • Other: MUST rmmod, or blacklist kernel driver r8187 (in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist) - it will claim the device before ndiswrapper gets a chance. The r8187 driver will associate with an AP and appear to work, but won’t actually transmit any data.

    • Other: The XP drivers did not work in this package, but the WIN98 ones did. In my experience, any driver for this adapter will load fine in ndiswrapper, but so far this is the only one that I got to find my AP. Other drivers even detected other AP’s, but not mine (which was closer than the detected ones). I also could not set the ESSID with other drivers. This one has neither of those problems.

    • encryption: WPA-PSK (TKIP)
    • usbid: 1385:4251
    • Driver: Windows driver from Netgear website
    • Other: Both athfmwdl.inf and netwg11t.inf installed with ndiswrapper version 1.23 or later as there is a bug in previous versions of ndiswrapper (per the changelog). This bug caused me hours of frustration using ndiswrapper v1.22 (Ubuntu Edgy). If using vista compatible drivers (e.g. version 2.1) you will need to use wine (tested with version 0.9.49) to extract drivers and install netwg11t.inf from the Driver directory (only need one .inf) within “~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/NETGEAR/WG111T”. Version 2.1 also allows WPA2 to work.

    • Driver: Netgear windows driver Version: 10/09/2004,1.0.0.114 from http://www.Netgear.com
    • Other: This driver comes with two sets of .inf and .sys files: athfmwdl and wg111u. Both of these must be installed with their .inf files.

    • Driver: realtek-driver for Windows 98SE/ME from http://www.realtek.com.tw/ look for RTL8187L or take Win-ME-driver from 1.4.0 driver from Netgear
    • Other: Distro: Kanotix, kernel Linux version 2.6.17.6, ndiswrapper utils version: 1.8 ndiswrapper driver version: 1.21. Some XP/2K drivers could see ESSID but didn’t transfer bytes, others did not even scan ESSID of AP. With ME-driver it seems to work quite well.

    • Other: Extract ZIP file and install driver in WINXP directory. Kernel 2.6.12.6 with WE 18 and ndiswrapper 1.2/1.4 ⇒ 128 bit WEP works perfectly, but WPA-PSK TKIP seems not to work with current wpa_supplicant version

    • Other: The outside packaging has the label WG111NA, but the label on the shell of the device has “FCC ID: PY3WG111V2”. Maybe the chipset is same as other WG111 on this list, how to confirm?. I’ve experienced a system lockup when removing the device from the usb port or when ‘deactivating’ the interface in the Fedora internet config tool; I have not yet isolated the problem because system behaves OK if it is shutdown before removing the device (and I’m lazy and complacent). This usb card did not run at all with ndiswrapper 1.0.
