DLink WUA2340 neta5agu not working in 527

#1 Post by yorkiesnorkie »

Hi, I have a USB DLINK WUA2340 that works with ndiswrapper under puppy 431 fine. However under 520, and 527 it does not work with ndiswrapper. I can load the inf module, but no new interfaces are found.

I'm not sure what the issue is. The sns doesn't work at all and there's never been a module listing for this dongle so autoprobe doesn't find it.

Thoughts? Here's the content of the NetA5AGU.inf file

Unaccountably, and frustratingly, I booted up this morning and it is now seemingly working. It doesn't work consistently on every boot!

Ok, I'm using 527, and I have an ndiswrapper folder which apparently contains several attempts to configure the driver:

sh-4.1# ls

/etc/network-wizard/wireless/profiles shows:

The first conf file shows something like this:

however I still have an autoconnect.conf file:

        FREQ="2.452G"
        CHANNEL="9"

Thoughts?

On reboot the wireless didn't load. I ran some commands in the command line to try and figure this out further:

looking for usb devices, I can't tell which one is the Dlink.

Code: Select all

sh-4.1# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 07d1:3a08
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:0111
seeing if ndiswrapper is installed, it is! Hey, thats DEvice 002 above! So it is there!

Code: Select all

sh-4.1# ndiswrapper -l
neta5agu : driver installed
	device (07D1:3A08) present
looking for ndiswrapper, ya, unh hunh...

Code: Select all

usbcore                91279  6 ndiswrapper,usbhid,usb_storage,ohci_hcd,ehci_hcd
So why didn't wlan load? A more detailed look...maybe someone can make something out of this.

Code: Select all

Puppy 527 also locked up shortly after my console efforts and I couldn't reboot, shut down etc. I had to hard power off.

Weird!

So, it appears I have ndiswrapper but no wlan0, so then...

Code: Select all

          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0

          TX packets:16 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
          RX bytes:1168 (1.1 KiB)  TX bytes:1168 (1.1 KiB)

Then...

Code: Select all

sh-4.1# iwconfig
lo        no wireless extensions.
I'll probably try and see if I can get wlan0 up via the command line. Basically ndiswrapper is loaded but finds no wlan0 interface.

I did notice something that I have to test again. I took a look at the conf file and commented out the content of autoconnect.conf. I added the content of 00:C0:49:EC:3F:D8.WEP.conf. I saved the file and when I rebooted, my spouse wasn't using her Puppy Linux at the time, and I got a wireless connection. This had also happened once before with the unmodified autoconnect.conf file. However, when we came back later in the day to use the computers, and I tried to connect after she logged on with her wireless connection, no joy. I have to test this again, that is see if I can get a connection when her PC is off.
