Thanks for your reply. <div style="margin: 5px 0px 5px 0px; font-family: monospace;"> On September 1, 2010 at 1:18 AM "BHASKAR SHARMA.N" <bhaskarsharma.n@gmail.com> wrote: > Better you install the driver from kpackagekit..or have you ever tried > program 'software centre'?

Even if I pull some plugs and move the modem over hear near my computer again, I don't know what that would accomplish. I don't even know what to install. It doesn't look like there are any native Linux drivers for a D-Link DWA-130 ... or any wireless networking adapter that I've ever heard of. (What's the deal with that, anyway? Are Linux and wi-fi so incompatible? Did Microsoft and Apple bribe every hardware manufacturer? Are the wi-fi people and the Linux people bitter enemies, and no one involved with creating or supporting one thing wants to ever touch the other? I don't understand this.) Anyway, my most immediate problem is that I've already installed a Windows driver, using ndiswrapper. Now, ndiswrapper hates me for it and refuses to let any program that touches it do anything I say. Once I fix that, then I can figure out how to connect for real. Thanks again. ~~ Dave V. ~~ </body> </html>
