In that case, you should blacklist the prism2_usb module.

With the help of Ndiswrapper, you can use a Windows driver for your card (2). For the moment the hostap driver does not support USB cards (1). Note that non-USB Prism II/III cards are supported by the hostap driver, which also supports WPA. Then unplug your device and reinsert again, and the network should come up by itself. Without the patch, you'll have to add these lines to your wlan0 configuration in /etc/network/interfaces: wireless_mode managed Note that using network-admin to enter the WEP key does not work out-of-the-box in Ubuntu 6.06. Whether you use network-admin or manually edit /etc/network/interfaces, make sure you enter the WEP key as xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, that is, with colons between every two hex digits. Since Ubuntu 7.04 you can enter the hex WEP key pretty much how you like, but for older versions, read on: Check the output from dmesg (the sta f/w line) to see what firmware version you have on your card, and see the "Updating firmware" section below if applicable. You will need stationary firmware version 1.7.0 or newer in order to get WEP to work. Linksys WUSB11v3.0 11Mbps WLAN USB Adapterĭell TrueMobile 1180 Wireless USB Adapter

The following USB devices are handled by the prism2_usb driver. (3) For related bugs, see the linux-wlan-ng package in launchpad. (1) For more information on the Prism II cards, see Since Ubuntu 8.04, the driver works out of the box without installing any packages and the linux-wlan-ng package is only needed if you use the firmware RAM loading for "updating" firmware on-the-fly. This works fine with the Gnome network configuration network-admin (3) as well. The linux-wlan-ng package in Ubuntu ships the linux-wlan-ng user space utilities/scripts that integrates with the ifupdown utilities. The Ubuntu kernel includes the prism2_* kernel modules from the linux-wlan project. Only a few Linux Wireless Extensions are supported, but recent versions can be used with for instance Network Manager. Unfortunately they are not actively developed (2) and have not been merged into the main kernel tree.

The prism2_* drivers for the Prism II chipset (1) are developed by the linux-wlan (tm) Project. See also WifiDocs/Device/DWL-122 and WifiDocs/Device/NetgearMA111 for help on manual configuration.

#Netgear wg111 driver prism install#
For all releases prior to Ubuntu 8.04, install the linux-wlan-ng package to use this driver! The package is included on all Ubuntu CDs.
