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

http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/misc/ ... per-common2
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/misc/ ... -utils-1.93
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/net/ndisgtkCopy 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.
