To enable the Universe repos go to... System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager -> Settings -> Repositories Make sure that there is a check next to.. "Community-maintained Open Source software" Once this is checked click "CLOSE" then click the "RELOAD" button. After the reload finishes click search and do a search for "ndisgtk" (without the quotes). Now click on the box next to ndisgtk and select "Mark for Installation" Lastly click the "apply" button.
