The first one I tried was this, from atv-bootloader wifi tutorial<http://code.google.com/p/atv-bootloader/wiki/InstallWireless> :
http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R140746.EXE then I tried this other one that I found in another forum for the BCM4328: ftp://ftp.dell.com/network/R151517.EXE but aparently its the same one, as dmesg reported booth to be: "ndiswrapper: driver bcmwl5 (Broadcom,10/12/2006, 4.100.15.5) loaded" I tried some others from an ubuntu tutorial, but apparently it was also the same one... I was wondering if the windows driver is the problem... on all foruns, seens that everyone has a rev 03 or less... mine is rev 05... so maybe I need a newer windows driver? thanks for the help man... -H On Thu, Mar 26, 2009 at 11:32 AM, Derek Keefe <[email protected]> wrote: > > where did you get the windows drivers? > > Hradec wrote: > > thanks for the ethernet tip!
