    Hello Everybody.

    I am trying to make Linksys WPC11 Ver.4 to made under Fedora Core 4, on IBM Thinkpad T21 laptop. I don't know which driver to use, So please guide me how to set this, up. I don't know do i have to use ndiswrapper or simply the linux driver.
    I know that this card is supported but i am unable to find any documentation for this project.

    Please HELP!!!!

      I'd like to introduce you to my friend, "google".

      The top hit returned by a search for "Linksys WPC11 Ver.4 linux" is:

      http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=284525

      which purports to be step-by-step instructions for installing ndiswrapper.

      Hi everyone

      I am  back with a small problem, I am successully able to install the driver and indeed i am able to connect with my local network. I can ping my gateway and other computers on the local network, but somehow the connectivity is limited only in the local network, I mean i can surf the internet, can not access anything outside the boundry of the local network.
      I am listing an error i received when i tried to do ifup wlan0

      # ifup wlan0
      Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
          SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.

      Determining IP information for wlan0... done.
      RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

      I figured out this problem, so you guys can discontinue this thread. The problem was not in the way we are dealing with the ndiswrapper but was in the router configuration.

      Thank you very much guys
