But rather than make the solution be to go out and buy something else, I'd like to focus on the actual issue. You are partially correct on the other points. The Linksys card has all the dual band and bandwidth capabilities as the Netgear unit. It worked out of the box in about 5 min most of which was devoted to opening up the box to put the card in.

Solution for me, I returned the Netgear product to NewEgg and went out and purchased a Linksys WMP600N PCI card at Microcenter for a few dollars less. I went so far as to purchase Crossover Professional and that still fails to unpack the drivers correct.yĥ - the most recent driver bcmlwhigh6 is not valid for ndiswrapper.Ħ - when I did get the older driver (bcmlwhigh5) to install, "ndiswrapper -l" would tell me the driver and device were present but not a thing would happen.ħ - the ndiswrapper issues are probably a bug in 10.04 as I've seen other reports of similar behavior on LaunchPad. I'd need to either blacklist ndis or remove the package altogether.Ĥ - wine doesn't correctly unpack/install the Windows driver.
#Netgear wnda3100 drivers ubuntu install#
I ran into most of the problems already described in these threads and on other forums.ġ - definitely does not work out of the box Ģ - does not work with any known linux driver ģ - does not work with ndiswrapper in fact,ndiswrapper would go into an infinite loop on many occasions once I tried to install the Windows driver. After reading buku threads, advice, etc I could never get the device to function. I just finished trying for a week to get a WNDA3100v2 working on Ubuntu 10.04.
