I am using an open network, so it should be no authentication problem.

I have problems using YAST since it detects it as wlan0 and I am not allowed to change name or module.

Any suggestions? I have seen that many people had troubles with this drivers, and all found a different solution.

I have also tryied ndiswrapper but that seems to work even worse.
