Hello kiro and welcome to the U.E Forum.

can you give us more info on the d link adapter?

first try this:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Hardw ... sDlink#USB

If your adapter is supported by linux then,
look here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiD ... diswrapper

if every thing is ok then:
Go to terminal. By pressing ALT-F2 and enter gnome-terminal and hit enter. Then give the output of following commands.
1. lshw -C network
2. ifconfig
3. iwconfig
4. iwlist scan


For others you do have to remove Network Manager.
and
Code: Select all
#wireless drivers that break rt73
blacklist rt2500usb
blacklist rt2x00lib
blacklist rt73usb


blacklist all of these in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file .. just add is

kiro

Thank you for the info on the modem.

you will need to install some packages from synaptic.
but first open terminal:

Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install ndisgtk


then or from synaptic:

ndiswrapper


1
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/misc/ ... per-common

2
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/misc/ ... -utils-1.9

3
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/net/ndisgtk

Copy the appropriate files over to a directory on your Ubuntu computer (e.g. your Home directory) and install them in this order:

Code: Select all
sudo dpkg -i ndiswrapper-utils_*.deb


Code: Select all
sudo dpkg -i ndisgtk_*.deb



Firstly, all releases since Ubuntu 6.06 have the open source bcm43xx driver, which was replaced in 8.04 by b43 and b43legacy, see WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx. If this driver doesn't work for you, then you should disable it, because it will conflict with ndiswrapper. To disable it, add blacklist bcm43xx lines for each driver to the modprobe blacklist.

Code: Select all
echo -e "blacklist bcm43xx\nblacklist b43\nblacklist b43legacy\nblacklist ssb" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist


OR:

just edit the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file and add blacklist bcm43xx, blacklist b43, blacklist b43legacy and blacklist ssb to the end of the file.
