I just installed a WPC54G v4 last night on my FC2 machine. I am using Kernel 2.6.8-1.521 and downloaded kernel-sourcecode I used ndiswrapper-0.10 I downloaded the Linksys driver for XP. there are two drivers in there, one for the Broadcom chip, the other for a int220p (or something like that) chip. I used the Broadcom BCM4306 chip driver. The PC ID for my card was 14E4:4320 The system recognizes the card and loads the driver perfect. I still have to test it with a hotspot to see how well it work, I am installing an AP at home tomorrow, so I will let you know, but I do not expect any problem. All systems were go and software behaved as expected according to the WIKI.

Neither the drivers on the linksys CD nor the drivers from linksys web page worked *in any way shape or form(TM)* for me. As an aside I misgoogled on the WPC11 card before I bought the NICs, somehow I missed the bit re: ver 4 does not work (natively) in linux. The earlier versions were well supported under linux, why I bought the card in the first place... I ran them using ndiswapper for about 10 days (flawlwssly) until the ver 3 cards arrived from linksys- they will swap ver 4 for ver 3 for free although it may take a few (7 in my case) phone calls to get that accomplished. The v. 3 cards 'just work', and are supported natively in linux. Bests Jon -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
