    Hi,

    My WUSB100 is recognized by Ubuntu 9.10.

    At least i suppose, because i can see all available networks in range. (looks the same as the windows machine).

    But everytime i try to connect to my access point it keeps asking for my WEP key. Then it try's to connect for 30 seconds and it asks the Wep key again. I've tried entering it in HEX and ASCII but no luck so far.

    The access point can handle more then one computer (2 windows laptops, 1 desktop and ps3 at the same time works) but when i try ubuntu alone or in combination it keeps asking for my password.

    the only strange thing I found was that the IP address i get from the access point (on a windows computer) is something like 78.21.208.90 and for another one 78.21.208.91. I didn't know the ip 78.21.208.XXX is for home use. I'm used to 192.168.1.1.

    If networks are recognized by network-manager does this mean ther is nothing wrong in ubuntu but with my access point...???

    Re: Linksys WUSB100 wireless card working in Linux.

    Tried some new forum topics google searches but no answers...

    I'm close I know it. Nobody had experience with this on ubuntu 9.10 or with the weird IP address?

    according to this: http://en.utrace.de/ip-address/78.21.208.91 it belongs to my provider. But isn't it so that you get one ip like that and the access point uses the 192.168.1.XXX for computers after it.

    Or should i put a router after my access point and is my access point ment for 1 computer?

    thanks in advance

    I went to the site and I can't seem to find that download. It's not there any more. Any ideas on how I can get my WUSB100 to work? I'm using 9.04 Ubuntu.

    Thanks,

    LaJuan

    A Belkin FSD7050. It is sold at Walmart. My on-board wireless quit working and I was at a friend's dog sitting who just happened to have the card so I tried it out and it was recognized. Worked so I bought one. - Running Ubuntu 9.10 - upgraded from 9.04 non clean upgrade.

    Hi

    Just wondering if this post is still alive.

    I am trying to get a linksys WUSB600N up and running on Ubuntu Version 9.10.

    I have downloaded the current deiver versions from ralink.com

    lsusb shows the device

    after compile and install

    I run the /sbin/insmod rt2870sta.ko

    No errors yet....

    If I run modprobe -l | grep rt2870

    The module shows installed in the kernel like so

    kernel/drivers/staging/RT2870STA/rt2870sta.ko

    Now here is where it fails...

    I run

    /sbin/ifconfig ra0 inet 192.168.1.102 up

    I get the following error

    SIOCSIFADDR: No Such Device
    ra0: Error while getting interface flags
    ra0: Error while getting interface flags
    No Such Device.

    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    John
