Can i use ndiswrapper for wg111t?

I have a netgear wg111 usb wifi dongle and i have only windows drivers. I know that using ndiswrapper you can install windows drivers on linux. Can i use ndiswrapper for wg111t? I'm a noob please help... :crybaby:

Which linux distribution and version are you using? Well also mention which version of wg111 are you using? Do you have the windows driver in a zip file or a self-extracting file? Or do you have a normal folder? The ndiswrapper can be used, you can try it anyways...!? :thumbup1:

Thanks for the fast reply, but can you please guide me how to use ndiswrapper, i just know that it can be used, but how i don't know to use it to install windows drivers on linux. Also i use Ubuntu 9.04. Its pretty awesome, i just switched from Kubuntu to Ubuntu... :ohyeah: I have the driver in a folder. Not in a zip or exe file. Will that matter? Please help friends...

No, its good if you have a folder. Now you will have an inf file which the setup information file, in this case, driver installation information file. Open terminal and type :

Code:

---

sudo ndiswrapper -i filename.inf

---

This will create a new configuration directory for you wifi device, now run the following command to load the drivers :

Code:

---

ndiswrapper -l

---

Now you should see something like this :

Code:

---

Rudra-Pc@rudra:~> /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper -l
<some-dev-id>        driver present, hardware present

---

Now run :

Code:

---

modprobe ndiswrapper

---

And finally run :

Code:

---

ndiswrapper -m

---

This last command will load your drivers at startup. :thumbup1:
