hello!
I hope i can find some help here,
I would like to know whether Netgear Wireless Adapter is Compatible with Rassberry Pi (using Ubuntu OS), and also the procedure to make it work !!
Thank you in advance !!
Re: Wireless Network Adapter
Do you have a link to a specific model. Knowing the chipset would help. If you have it you can put it into the Pi and type:
Then post what it shows in regards to the adapter.
It should work but may be that you need a powered hub if it takes too much to work directly from the Pi's built in USB.
Code: Select all

Re: Wireless Network Adapter
You can also check this list: http://elinux.org/RPi_VerifiedPeriphera ... i_Adapters
This lists the adapters that are known to work or not. If your specific type is not in te list, you can check to see if the wireless chipset used in the device (is probably reported in lsusb as well) and see if there are any wireless dongles with the same chipset that are known to work.
If neither of them are in the list: Just try and see if it works

Rev1: D14 removed, F1&F2 bypassed and heatsinks installed. Stable at arm 900 / gpu 300 / sdram 400 
. No overvolting!
Rev2: 512MB version, no mods, just heatsinks installed. Stable at arm 930 / gpu 350 / sdram 500. No overvolting!

Re: Wireless Network Adapter
The last I heard there wasn't a (decent) build of Ubuntu for the RPi. Has that changed?jameswifi wrote:.... Rassberry Pi (using Ubuntu OS) ...
Re: Wireless Network Adapter
Technicaly Both Ubuntu and Rasbian are both derivatives of Debian so they are cousins allready.

If you find a solution please post it in the wiki the forum dies too quick

Re: Wireless Network Adapter
ndiswrapper is a wrapper around windows x86 driver code, so it believes its running on windows, so that will work on a x86 system, but not on an ARM system. You must use a real (ARM) driver, not a hack.blakegall24 wrote:Ubuntu currently does not support the WNDA3100 adapters but the WNDA3100v1 can work with ubuntu using ndiswrapper

Ubuntu does not have a release suitable for the for the Pi
ndiswrapper is not for ARM architecture

Re: Wireless Network Adapter
fruitoftheloom, have you had any luck getting this adapter working? I have the .9011 as well and I swear I've had it working previously. I guess it could have been a different distro though. Oh well, back to Google I guess!

If you read through this (ancient) topic you will see that at no point fruitoftheloom says he actually has ever tried this adapter...shieldsit wrote:fruitoftheloom, have you had any luck getting this adapter working?
