I also loaded ndiswrapper 1.5. I can load everything like this: ndiswrapper -i /install/ndiswrapper/broadcom/bcmwl5.inf /sbin/modprobe ndiswrapper /sbin/iwconfig wlan0 mode Managed /sbin/iwconfig wlan0 key my_key_goes_here /sbin/iwconfig wlan0 essid my_ssid_goes_here /sbin/ifconfig wlan0 192.168.1.25 netmask 255.255.255.0 up In /var/log/messages I get this: Nov 2 15:03:54 laptop kernel: ndiswrapper version 1.5 loaded (preempt=no,smp=yes) Nov 2 15:03:54 laptop kernel: ndiswrapper: driver bcmwl5 (Broadcom,10/20/2004, 3.70.22.0) loaded Nov 2 15:03:54 laptop kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:02.0[A] -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 193 Nov 2 15:03:54 laptop kernel: eth%d: ndiswrapper ethernet device 00:90:4b:5f:be:d2 Nov 2 15:03:54 laptop kernel: ndiswrapper: using irq 193 Nov 2 15:03:55 laptop kernel: wlan0: vendor: '' Nov 2 15:03:55 laptop kernel: wlan0: ndiswrapper ethernet device 00:90:4b:5f:be:d2 using driver bcmwl5, 14E4:4320.5.conf Nov 2 15:03:55 laptop kernel: wlan0: encryption modes supported: WEP; TKIP with WPA; AES/CCMP with WPA Here's the big problem at the moment. I don't see this device connecting to my wireless router. If I look at the connections on my wireless router this mac address does not connect. I've also tried it with encryption turned off on the router, and not using a WEP key, but it still doesn't connect. Anyone have any suggestions now? Thanks, James
