That will show you the authentication details. I've found that to be very helpful in tracking down the fly in the ointment.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21252641 Sat, 11 Oct 2008 21:07:39 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21252622 bones200 : OK... The card works fine WITHOUT WPA key. Can't ask to work better or faster. Just can't use password. Any help for this? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21252622 Sat, 11 Oct 2008 21:00:27 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21227596 garethsk : I fought with a Netgear WG111v2 under Ubuntu a little last night, trying to switch my HTPC over to MythTV.

I had to do just like No_Strings said: install NDISWrapper, the Windows driver (Win98 in my case), blacklist the RTL8185, and then configured the wireless settings.

Sees adapter. Says driver installed. (windows driver). It does not see the router. Box comes up, no available networks??? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21217095 Sun, 05 Oct 2008 00:06:51 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21148859 No_Strings : After a quick search, I think you'd have the best success using NDISwrapper. Three basic steps: install the NDISwrapper program if it's not already there, use NDISwrapper to install the Windows driver for this card and blacklist the native 8185 driver to keep it from conflicting.

Generic instructions are here:

My wireless card does NOT work. Shows driver for it.
How do I get it to work? I am new to the Kubuntu system. I have been reading alot of forums and pages about it. It seems all overlap or is not what I am needing.
The system copied all of my other drivers from windows fine. Everything works EXCEPT my wireless card.
I think this is the chipset (forgot to write it down).
RealTek RTL8185
Any ideas? All I have is windows drivers. No linux at all. Thanks, Travis.
I think this is what is CLOSE to. Has been a couple of years since I bought it. Does not have a "brand" name on it anywhere. Works fine in windows.....
