Auto-NDISwrapper

Sourceforge download page doesn't exist

Asked by Lovok

Using a DWL-G132.
I did as instructed, extracted the file in the home directory and ran the python script. Everything in the terminal runs fine, but it links me to a dead page :
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1384037&forum_id=323167

Any suggestions?

I copied AGUx86.inf and AGUx86.sys from a folder VSTx86 that I downloaded weeks ago and forget from where.
I have yet to reboot, but I am posting this using my wireless :)

I have rebooted, and now it doesn't work. Each time I reinstall the driver, it says "Driver is already installed" and stops there. I am guessing that, because of this, it won't do the work it did last time to reinitialize my wireless.
This is the log from when it worked:

Also, after having done a full reboot, the /tmp/auto-ndis/2001:3a03 folder emptied the AGUx86 files I had placed there.
I placed them there using "sudo cp ..."

It seems to be a faulty entry on the database. I'm sorry that it didn't work out for you. The purpose of this release was to improve the database and to make sure it works. Thanks for pointing this out. If you find the appropriate driver please post it on http://easylinuxwifi.org/forms.php. I will also try to fix this soon "Each time I reinstall the driver, it says "Driver is already installed" and stops there.".

I did some back tracking, and found the VSTx86 folder I was talking about ; these drivers were compiled by Onay on the Ubuntu Forums :
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5056981&postcount=6
With these I managed to connect to the Internet until I rebooted.
I am hesitant to submit this as "the" working driver for a DWL-G132.
I leave the decision up to you if you find this driver appropriate. I shall also mark this problem as solved, seeming this is as far as we can go until the next release.
