NETGEAR WNDA3100v2 Adapter Problems

[bcariddi]

Hello, I recently installed Ubuntu and I need to get my wireless adapter (NETGEAR WNDA3100v2) to work with Ubuntu 12.04. I cannot get a wired internet connection to the computer, but I can use a flash drive to transfer files from other computers if needed. I do have ndiswrapper installed, but I am not sure how to use it to install the files needed to use my adapter. I have the .inf file/files that is/are needed and my computer is a 64bit system.
If you could help me get my adapter working, it would be a huge help!
Thanks in advance!

Try this 64bit driver:

http://media.cdn.ubuntu-de.org/forum...4bit_v3.tar.gz

Install it with

sudo ndiswrapper -i /path/to/64bit/INF-file

Change the router mode to "b+g" only

The file attached was not an .inf file, so the installation did not succeed. Is this the right file? Thanks.

Unpack the tar.gz. There should be 2 folders...

Ohhh... Stupid me haha.
Now the driver is installed, so what do I do next?
When I type ndiswrapper -l I get

bcmn43xx64: driver installed
device (0846:9011) present

Reload the driver and re-plug the stick:

sudo modprobe -rfv ndiswrapper
sudo modprobe -v ndiswrapper

Check after that:

iwconfig
dmesg | grep ndis
sudo iwlist scan
ifconfig -a
iwlist chan

sudo modprove -rfv ndiswrapper:

FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.

sudo modprove -v ndiswrapper:

FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.

iwconfig:

eth0      no wireless extensions
lo        no wireless extentions

dmesg | grep ndis: nothing
sudo iwlist scan:

eth0       interface doesn't support scanning
lo        interface doesn't support scanning

iwlist chan:

etho        no frequency information
lo        no frequency information

Reinstall ndiswrapper:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall ndisgtk ndiswrapper-dkms dkms linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential
