dell wireless wlan 1350

[Keige]

I need to find out the broadcom number for my wireless wlan 1350. I am going to see if the linuxant driver loader will then allow me to connect. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks and happy Thanksgiving to all.

Hi
I have a dell 8600. with WLAN 1350
I used the ndiswrapper installer to install WLAN 1350. it works great. but when i reboot and come back to linux the WLAN does not work, when i click activate it says :-
Cannot activate network device wlan0!
Device wlan0 has different MAC address than expected, ignoring.'.

i have to redo the whole ndiswrapper installation to make it working again. is this the normal behavior or am i missing something.

Pls help.
Thanks and regards,
Crystal

don't forget to add the appropriate line to /etc/modprobe.conf

I broke down paid for the linuxant setup... It's nice.
That with wpa_supplicant and xsupplicant I can connect to securred 11g sites too... Sweetness abound
