How to install your Linksys WMP110 wireless card on linux

I run Ubuntu, but I imagine it would probably be the same for most distributions.
Install ndiswrapper, use your repos package search. On Ubuntu it is already installed.



yum search ndiswrapper

or

aptitude search ndiswrapper.

If you need to build from source, check out this post.

Download the driver files here. You can also snag them from the cd that comes with your Linksys card.


tar -jxvf ar5416.tar.bz2
cd ar5416
ndiswrapper -i net5416.inf

Not sure if you have to use all three of these, but I do just cause it makes me feel better.


ndiswrapper -m
ndiswrapper -mi
ndiswrapper -ma

then


sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper
sudo modprobe ndiswrapper

This is what worked for me.

Hope it works for you.
