Setup for Netgear Powerline AV

Asked by Lawrence Crumb

I have a Netgear Powerline setup, XAVN2001 & XAVNB2001, hooked up to my Netgear wireless router. The software for the setup is for Windows.
It works fine for Windows but I need a setup written in Linux so I can hook up to my new RaspberryPi.
The signal is getting to the RPi but the operating system is not connection to the router.
Also I would like to connect wireless to a laptop running Xubuntu or another desktop running Ubuntu.
I got the RaspberryPi so I could learn to program.

I still do not know what you are getting at.
I am using Windows and I think that you are talking about Linux which I do not know much about.

This is a Linux support platform. More specifly it's for Ubuntu Linux.
Since Ubuntu is not running on the RaspberryPi at the moment. You might be completely wrong here.

From the RaspberryPi FAQ:
What Linux distros will be supported at launch?

Fedora, Debian and ArchLinux will be supported from the start. We hope to see support from other distros later. (Because of issues with newer releases of Ubuntu and the ARM processor we are using, Ubuntu can’t commit to support Raspberry Pi at the moment.) You will be able to download distro images from us as soon as the Raspberry Pi is released, and we will also be selling pre-loaded SD cards shortly after release.

Its copying and pasting a command to a terminal, this requires zero knowledge of Linux but the ability to copy and paste text which I'm VERY sure you are able to do.

Got onto the RPi and put it into the terminal and got Bash command not found for each.

I solved my problem by moving the RPi so now I have a wire from the RPi to my Wireless Router
