Wifi installation issues with a Sitecom 300N x2 Wireless Network dongle
- by SlyrNemesis
Linux newbie here, anyway so here is the problem, I run Ubuntu 10.10 and I have a Sitecom 300N x2 Wireless Network dongle with chipset 8192SU, I used ndiswrapper to install my Windows Wireless driver because Sitecom doesn't have a linux driver, it says hardware present but it doesn't find any Wireless networks, nor does it connect to one. What can I do?
The command "dmesg | grep ndis" gave this output in the terminal:
