Subject: Determining the chipset of a wireless NIC?
Newsgroups: gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general
Hello all,
Is there a way to determine the chipset that is used in a given wireless NIC?
I've read the comments that manufacturers sometimes change the chipset in
mid-production.
After reading comments on Newegg.com concerning a specific card, I
bought one since one reviewer said that it was recognized by Ubuntu.
The card in question is a Netgear WG511T.
Any help with the configuration, or with choosing the correct option on
the GUI-based setup for FC5, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any help...Jim
Two alternatives:
Have you looked at <http://www.batbox.org/wrt54g-linux.html>?
I use an Asus WL-330g which connects to my ethernet RJ45 jack, so that, as
far as linux is concerned, it's a wired connection.
