I finally was able to configure my Linksys WMP54-G to connect using ndiswrapper and the Windows wireless drivers for RT2500. To do this I used the initscript changes described at... http://www.cybcon.com/~coert/linux/siso/ap-scripts-madwifi.html I ignored the madwifi specific parts and just used the changes on... http://www.cybcon.com/~coert/linux/siso/ap-client-etc-sysconfig-wireless-wpasupplicantconf.html http://www.cybcon.com/~coert/linux/siso/ap-client-dldir-fc3-network-scripts-wpa-patch.htmlhttp://www.cybcon.com/~coert/linux/siso/ap-client-etc-sysconfig-networkscripts-ifcfgwlan0.html I also added... alias wlan0 ndiswrapper ...to /etc/modprobe.conf. Unfortunately, I still am not autoloading the ndiswrapper kernel module and/or starting wpa-supplicant before the ifup-wireless script generates in iwconfig. If, after booting I open a terminal and manually modprobe the ndiswrapper module and then execute... /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dndiswrapper -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -d I can then use the Network Configuration to activate the wlan0 device with no errors or warning. My current contents in /etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts for ifcfg-wlan0 is... WPA=yes WPA_CONFIG=/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf WPA_DRIVER=ndiswrapper TYPE=Wireless DEVICE=wlan0 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes IPV6INIT=no ESSID="mywirlessnet" KEY="mywirelesspasswd" CHANNEL=11 MODE=Managed USERCTL=no PEERDNS=yes Thanks in advance for any advice on how to get both the ndiswrapper kernel module to autoload and for the wpa_supplicant to start early enough in the networking scripts to allow the connection to be made.
