I installed wicd and everything is great! Thanx for the reply.

JohnPta: maybe the site was just temporarily down? I'm able to wget it right now with no problem. Could you please try again?
If it fails for you again, I now have a local copy that I can upload somewhere if necessary.
InF3XioN: glad to hear it's solved.
hey
i have the same card as johnpta but i seem to have slighty different problems.
i cant hook my laptop up to the internet due to no wireless working, ill type the rest in if you need it though
when i run 'lshw -C network'
i end up with (among other things that sound normal)
physical id: 0
width: 64 bits
driver=ndiswrapper+net5211
when i run 'uname - rm'
i get
i686
and 'ndiswrapper -l'
net5211 : driver installed
device (XXXX:XXXX) present (alternate driver: ath_pci)
and dmesg " grep -e ndis -e wlan
gives me a bunch of stuff mentioning ndiswrapper being loaded and there are no errors. the only problem as it appears to my noobish eyes is
wlan0: link is not ready
also when i tried to ping the wireless card or whatever that command was (i cant recall it now) it told me that eth0 was not responding and that wlan0 was unable to be probed (or some such)
thanks alot in advance this has been really annoying me for a few weeks now

Ampersand.: from what you mention, it sounds like everything should be working properly. I'm guessing that the failure to associate with your wireless network is due to some problem with Network Manager. It may help to disable encryption on your network just to see if the connection would work then.
You might also want to install wicd. You can download an installer for it and transfer it to your Ubuntu computer, then double-click the installer to install. Can you connect with wicd?
The error message "wlan0: link is not ready" is not serious; dmesg always says that even if the connection works.

Ok finally I got that file down loaded and installed.
At first the software could not find the package because the firewall was on high security.
Now the computer is seeing the router but I can not yet connect to it.
When I look at Network Connections I see now "Auto wlan-ap" what wasn't there before. However when I want to edit it, the button "ok" at the bottom of the screen doesn't highlight. What is the reason for that?
Ok Ok there was a difference in wording of certain definitions between Ubuntu and the setup of my router
Thans for your help I really appreciate it.

Thanks for your reply on this pytheas22. OK, so here is where I'm at now:
As you suggested, I installed the Broadcom STA drivers via the "Hardware Drivers" option. I also installed WCID. With the WN511B adapter in, I had to change the "Wireless Interface" option in the preferences of WCID from wlan1 to eth1. I was then able to view wireless networks around, and connect to my own network. Once connected however, I am not able to connect to any website - Firefox was reporting refused connection messages...
A couple of things I noticed:
1. the Channel reported by WCID was showing as 7, when my router is broadcasting on Channel 5...
2. I also have a Belkin 54g (F5D7010) card, which when I plug into my laptop,did not initially work with WCID. I found I had to change the "Wireless Interface" option in WCID preferences FROM eth1 back to wlan1. The Belkin adapter then connected to my network, and I can view web pages without issue.
So, I'm confused about what is happening... my Netgear WN511B is connecting (once I change the Wireless Interface to eth1), but is not allowing me to view any web pages, whereas the Belkin card only works when I change the Wireless Interface option in WCID to wlan1, but I'm able to view web pages.
Can you shed any light and solutions to get me WN511B working??
Many thanks in advance,
BM
BigMike007: it could be merely a DNS problem that's preventing you from loading web pages, but it could be something more complicated. Please connect via wicd using the Netgear card, then post the output of the following commands so that I can get a clearer picture of what's going on:
Sorry to ask you to post so much, but it will be helpful to me.Code:sudo iwlist scan lshw -C Network lsmod | grep -e ndis -e wl dmesg | grep -e ndis -e wl ifconfig ping -c 5 google.com ping -c 5 74.125.45.100 wget google.com wget 74.125.45.100 cat /etc/resolv.conf
pytheas22,
Thanks again for your time on this - no worries about posting results of the listed commands!
OK, here they are:

Thanks,

BigMike007: you have some packet loss issues and other problems that are probably a result of issues with the 'wl' driver, so it might make the most sense at this point to try ndiswrapper again. So please make sure you have the working Windows driver loaded into ndiswrapper (not the one that triggered 'Unknown Symbol' errors), then run these commands to switch back to ndiswrapper:
At this point, your card should be up. Please try connecting again--I know you said it failed before, but you may have better luck with wicd (remember to change the interface name specified in wicd). If you still can't seem to negotiate the connection, please post the output of:Code:sudo rmmod wl sudo rmmod b43 sudo rmmod ssb sudo rmmod ndiswrapper sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
Code:sudo iwlist scan dmesg | grep -e ndis -e wlan
pytheas22:
OK, so I ran those commands. Changed the Wireless Interface to wlan0 - refreshed and wireless networks displayed. Tried to connect but looking at the status bar of WICD, it never got past the authentication element of the network.
Output as requested:
jamesd@jamesd-AcerLaptop:~$ sudo iwlist scan
lo Interface doesn't support scanning.
eth0 Interface doesn't support scanning.
