Hi Rudi,

Please take a look at the FAQ once again.  It says, "By using the
Vendor & Device numbers from an ID pairing, you can check to see if
your system contains an appropriate driver module for that particular
device" and gives you a command to run.

In my previous post, I gave you an example output from that command
run on my CentOS 5.5 box. It showed that ath9k is *included* in the
current [CentOS] kernel.

This page

points to ath9k
"vendor: 168c ("Atheros Communications Inc."), device: 0023 ("AR5008

Hi Akemi,

I'm not sure this is the correct driver.


[r...@intranet ~]#  /sbin/lspci | grep -i net
01:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008
Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
01:01.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc DGE-528T Gigabit
Ethernet Adapter (rev 10)
01:05.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL-8110SC/8169SC Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10)

[r...@intranet ~]# /sbin/lspci -n | grep '01:00.0'
01:00.0 0280: 168c:0023 (rev 01)


Acording to this output, I should see if "168c:0023" exists in
http://elrepo.org/tiki/DeviceIDs, which it doesn't.

Luckily, you just showed the vendor:device ID pairing of your card by
the above command (168c:0023).  You can confirm this by this
one-liner:

for BUSID in $(/sbin/lspci | awk '{ IGNORECASE=1 } /net/ { print $1
}'); do /sbin/lspci -s $BUSID -m; /sbin/lspci -s $BUSID -n; done

Using the pair, I see:

$ grep -i 168c /lib/modules/*/modules.alias | grep -i 0023
/lib/modules/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5/modules.alias:alias
pci:v168Cd0023sv*sd*bc*sc*i* ath9k
/lib/modules/2.6.18-194.8.1.el5/modules.alias:alias
pci:v168Cd0023sv*sd*bc*sc*i* ath9k

Looks like the ath9k driver in the kernel supports your device.  For

How do I go about installing this card?

Here's the output of lspci -v:

01:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008

Subsystem: D-Link System Inc Unknown device 3a6b
 

I can only point you in the right direction (sorry!). This is from
memory and from a setup that I've used on Fedora in the past so CentOS
_should_ be similar...

You have to install wpa_supplicant and the relevant configuration files are:
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wap_supplicant.conf
/etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/keys-eth0
__
   




I already have it installed:

[r...@intranet ~]# rpm -qa | grep wpa
wpa_supplicant-0.5.10-9.el5
[r...@intranet ~]# ll /etc/wpa_supplicant/
total 4
-rw--- 1 root root 107 Mar 31 06:58 wpa_supplicant.conf
[r...@intranet ~]# ll /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 391 Mar 31 06:58 /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant



But, I got no idea how to configure the card in console-only mode, i.e. 
without X installed.



[r...@intranet ~]# iwconfig
lono wireless extensions.

eth1  no wireless extensions.

eth0  no wireless extensions.

sit0  no wireless extensions.

[r...@intranet ~]# iwconfig wlan0
wlan0 No such device

[r...@intranet ~]# ifconfig wlan0
wlan0: error fetching interface information: Device not found

I hope someone can help me.  I'm trying to setup a D-Link DWA-547 on
