Install usb wifi Netgear WNDA3100v3
Hello,
I want to install an usb wireless Netgear WNDA3100v3 on my Computer HP Compaq 6510b running with Linux Mint 18.1.
I followed the HOWTO: Netgear WNA3100 wireless adapter on LMDE (64-bit) on this forum. But I can't go further than step 7 because I don't know how to find the compatible drivers with the Ndiswrapper 1.61 which is the last version of Ndiswrapper.
Can someone help me to find this drivers and to complete the installation ?
Thanks you.

Re: Install usb wifi Netgear WNDA3100v3
Aren't "linux-headers-generic" only for Ubuntu? Anyway, I find that installing module-assistant and running its "m-a prepare" command as sysadmin installs that is needed for the running kernel to build drivers.JeremyB wrote:You don't need ndiswrapperCode: Select all

After unplugging usb wireless, the computer started well.

Re: Install usb wifi Netgear WNDA3100v3
Does the button on the computer enable wifi? You may have to reset BIOS to default
Re: Install usb wifi Netgear WNDA3100v3
Yes the button on the computer enables the wifi. Do you want me to enable wifi ?JeremyB wrote:Does the button on the computer enable wifi? You may have to reset BIOS to default
In fact, I want to install an usb wireless because my computer wifi is not stable. Many times the computer wifi crashes and I have to reboot the computer to get wifi for twenty or thirty minutes, and then rebooting once again.
I can enable computer wifi with the extern button. Should I ?

You should be able to disable the internal with
