Madwifi on Cassandra

Postby jimslinux on Sun May 13, 2007 11:18 pm

A while back, I experienced problems with wifi using the live cd of Bianca. I gave up because, Ubuntu on which it is based, runs my wifi live without problems. I did however notice that Mint live seemed to run slightly quicker than Ubuntu. I really wanted to set up a working Mint box on my PIII Thinkpad with Netgear WG511T for comparison with Ubuntu. I downloaded pre 3.0 Cassandra, then ran it live, and once again no wifi. I downloaded Madwifi and had it on tap ready to compile to the mint kernel. During the hard drive install, my Netgear card began roaming. Configuring the network was straight forward. Just remember that if you are using Madwifi, your cards extension is ath0, ath1 depending on how many madwifi devices you are using.

Linux Mint is funded by ads and donations.

This should be a separate post, Why do you add it at the end of a thread where the last post was on Mar 21, 2007 and about Atheros???
