To all:
Although I am new, I DID search on this topic, tried everything in the various threads and basically got squat after 2 hours of fiddling. I have the Inspiron 1526 with the Broadcom card... don't know all the ins and outs of ndiswrapper, etc. but HAVE TRIED everything I could find. Is there anyone out there kind enough to help me via remote control, chat, pms?
One of the things that is troublesome is that I try these methods you all give out other places, but my wireless card isn't showing up at ALL...
