Hi
I am new to this forum ,I have just installed suse 11 on my computer, everything is running OK I think .I am now trying to set up my internet connection,my modem is a netgear DG834Gv3 and my adapter is netgear WPN111.I have been on the netgear site on my windows machine but can’t find a driver for the adapter. I have also put a Belkin PCI ethernet card in the computer but canot load the driver from the CD I think it is windows based . Can someone help .
You need to find out what chip is in your network adapters. Names and device
numbers are relatively useless because the vendors frequently change chips
during the lifetime of the device. The Linux driver for V3 may not be the same
as for V2.
Open a console terminal, enter the command ‘/sbin/lspci -v’, find the sections
that describe your wired and wireless adapters, and post that information.

There should be a space ahead of the “-v”.
