Till now the ndiswrapper configured eth0, eth1 etc. interface; however, depending on other cards present and modules loaded, this could be eth0, eth1 etc. So sometimes it interferes with the network setup for other cards. I have added module parameter dev_template to the latest cvs. With this, you can specify the base name of the interface. In my case, I load the module as modprobe ndiswrapper dev_template='ndis%d' Then the interface appears as ndis0. Note the quotes; %d will be replaced by the next available number for the interface with that base name. Giri |

A quick correction! dev_template requires %d every time, which is pain, so I replaced that with basename. Usage is modprobe ndiswrapper basename=ndis Instead of ndis, use eth or wlan or anything else you want. Again, default basename is eth, so interface appears as ethX if no basename is given. Giri |
