could someone show me teh steps installing ndiswrapper

there is a specific wireless forum; posts on wireless topics may well get noticed there more easily;

in the postings of the wireless forum, there are two “Stickies”: postings that contain advice;

you ask I think about ndiswrapper

Ndiswrapper howto - openSUSE

SDB:Ndiswrapper - openSUSE

Hi,

Don’t install that ndiswrapper but the firmware for that adapter.

  1. Make sure that the bcm43xx-fwcutter is installed. If not do so.

  2. If you are able to connect with a cable open a console and make yourself root. Than type:



install_bcm43xx_firmware


If you cannot connect with a cable tell me and I will explain you how to do this manually. Whatever, you need a working internet connection at least on another machine.
