#NETGEAR WIRELESS PCI ADAPTER WG311 DRIVER V1 INSTALL#
Copy all the files to your home directory, and then install the. Now that you've got your packages and driver files, return to your Ubuntu box. Instructions are in this thread on ubuntu forums in particular, see this post.
#NETGEAR WIRELESS PCI ADAPTER WG311 DRIVER V1 DRIVERS#
These drivers are third party (i.e., not from the chipset manufacturer) but work fine.
#NETGEAR WIRELESS PCI ADAPTER WG311 DRIVER V1 64 BIT#
Instead, you need to get drivers for 64 bit architecture. If you are using 64 bit version of Ubuntu, the above drivers will not work. Getting driver files - AMD 64 architecture I'll refer to the Win2K driver for the rest of this document. However, if you have trouble with one driver, then you can try one of the others. We'll use the Windows 2000 driver, because it seems to work on several versions of Ubuntu with no problems. This subdirectory is 540.8 KB, so you can still fit it on a floppy if necessary. Unzip the file and grab the subdirectory 'Driver/Windows 2000', which contains the actual driver for Win2K.
#NETGEAR WIRELESS PCI ADAPTER WG311 DRIVER V1 ZIP FILE#
The zip file contains four versions of the driver - Win98, WinME, Win2K and WinXP - and a setup program, which of course is irrelevant for our purposes. The file is 6.2 MB, but you don't need all of that. You can download Windows driver files here: The easiest source for WG311 drivers is directly from the chipset manufacturer, Marvell. 48.9 KB doesn't seem a lot of space to sacrifice on the ISO in exchange for a functioning network. One wonders why ndiswrapper isn't installed, and isn't even on the CD, given that many laptop users cannot even begin to get their network cards running without this package. A floppy disk will do if necessary, since the two files are only 48.9 KB total, but a thumb drive may be more convenient. Download the files and copy them onto some portable media. Just get one -common file and one -utils file. Ndiswrapper-utils-1.9_1.38-1ubuntu1_b It's probably best to use the most recent version of ndiswrapper, so if the packages have been updated since this was written, get the most recent version. You need these two files: ndiswrapper-common_1.38-1ubuntu1_all.deb The ndiswrapper packages can be found at You'll need to download them at some other computer, or using an ethernet wired connection.Įither install ndiswrapper via an ethernet wired connection, or read the rest of this section to get it using another machine. Which is irritating as hell, because you need the packages so that your network card will work. Furthermore, the packages necessary to install it aren't on the CD either. Unfortunately, ndiswrapper does not come installed by default on Feisty Fawn installation CDs. However, the program ndiswrapper will let you use the Windows drivers. Once you've verified the chipset, proceed.Īs of this writing, there are no native Linux drivers for the Marvell 88w8835 Libertas chipset. It's the rest of it you need to worry about. The numbers at the beginning of the line are system-specific, so don't worry about those.

If yours looks like this, then you're in the right place. Start a console and type in the following command: lspci | grep MarvellĠ0:08.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. I have managed to get WPA working perfectly with the 64bit driver linked below.įirst, double check that you have this exact model of the card by getting chipset information. Its been found that WPA works possibly only with a specific version of the driver. You will have to run either using WEP or no encryption. There is currently no known driver for this device that will allow WPA encryption. There may be differences in the procedure with earlier versions. This how-to was produced mostly using a Feisty Fawn live-cd session, and verified correct with Hardy.
