Greetings,
Anyone know how to get an SMC 2862W-G USB wifi adapter working in
Opensuse 10.3? In yast>network devices it shows up as EZ Connect G
device (the name of the thing), but I can't get it to connect to my
router with WPA-PSK. I enter the ssid, and my passphrase, but it won't
connect. I don't know if this is a hardware setup problem or an
encryption issue. The device is known to work on other OS's.
Which OS's?
According to http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_part.php?brandname=SMC that
devioce seems to be problematic for a native driver, but did you allready try
ndiswrapper and the windows driver ?
No, haven't tried either yet. The linux drivers on the link you gave me
appear to require a firmware mod. Not sure I want to try that yet. I do,
use this box with WinXP too, so I don't want to mod the adapter if I can
help it. I'll try ndiswrapper to see if that works. As the name of the
thing is recognized in yast, I was hopeful that it would run natively in
10.3. But I guess there's nothing wrong with using ndiswrapper.
Many thanks,
Jim F
