[DONE] Netgear wna3100

[eno423]

i have a similar dongle (wnda3100) and my pi doesnt detect it when running config over SSH

i also followed your directions from another thread & pulled down the lastest config...but now i dont even have a WLAN option, only the lan which it shows directly to the settings


any ideas as to why the pi isnt detecting this adapter


further more i just found this on a openelec site

Quote:etgear WNDA-3200 Atheros ath9k Y This is a Virgin branded version of the WNDA-3100. The card is a dual-mode device; it initially mounts as a CDROM that is "ejected" via a udev rule to switch the card into WLAN mode. Aside from this oddity the card performs well and is probably the cheapest dual-band 2.4/5GHz card you can buy - there is a plentiful supply for under £10 on eBay UK as Virgin (the UK ISP) bundle them free with the Netgear router they provide to ADSL subscribers. The WNDA-3100 sister product uses at least two different chipsets but all the WNDA-3200's I have encountered use the same Atheros chipset. 2012-03-15

ok a bit more digging. i have the V2 broadcom version & even my win 7 & 8 machine wouldnt install a driver for it. i had to go to Netgears site (http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/WNDA3100V2/WNDA3100v2_V2.1.0.3.zip) and download it.

so now i have it working on my windows box. How do i move the drivers to my xbain distro & then install them?

if i suply them can you goes roll them up for me?

it looks like alot of linux distros have issues with this V2 model & the drivers need to be extraced onto windows & then moved & installed over...however i can only do that via a GUI & wouldnt know where to begin from a Bash
