    Is your AirLive attached to a hub? Have you tried with it attached directly to the USB port?

    Nope, AirLive is attached directly to the USB port.

    Re: AirLive WL 1600 USB - problem

    I'm sorry. I haven't a single further idea. There is nothing, aside from the iRQs, that I can see wrong to fix. If you'd care to troubleshoot the native driver rtl8187 or use the internal device, I'd be glad to continue.

    Ok, what do you say to reinstall Mint and try to fix native driver ?

    Re: AirLive WL 1600 USB - problem

    I doubt there is any need to reinstall. I'd remove the ndiswrapper file:
    Code:
    sudo ndiswrapper -e netrtuw_x64
    Then I'd amend the blacklist file to remove rtl8187:
    Code:
    sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
    Reboot and see what you get:
    Code:
    iwconfig
    If neither the internal Atheros works, nor the USB with either rtl8187 or ndiswrapper, then there is a bigger problem at work here: IRQs?

    I did what You said. I rebooted and my card wasn't working.
    I wrote in console :
    Code:
    modprobe rtl8187
    and the card started working.
    Code:
    lo        no wireless extensions.

    Awesome! Let's get rtl8187 to load automatically.
    Code:
    sudo su
    echo rtl8187 >> /etc/modules
    exit
    Is everything working as expected now?

    The pages are loading very long or I got an error. I cannot download files because speed falls to 0kb/s. That's why I wanted to install windows driver.

    Let's see:
    Code:
    lsmd | grep -e ndis -e 818
    dmesg | grep 818
    Thanks.
