re ACERTravelmate

[dalmeida]

I got my working (keep in mind I've got IPW2200, I'm not sure which one
you have, but the only difference should be obtaining the driver for
your particular model from the ftp site below. Just go to
ftp.support.acer-euro.com/notebook and go from there. Hope this helps)



How I got IPW2200 to work on Acer Travelmate 2200 with Ubuntu Linux



apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils

wget http://tinyurl.com/7bp3o

unzip 80211bg.zip

cp -r 80211bg /opt/

ndiswrapper -i /opt/80211bg/Winxp/neti2220.inf

(Ignore error msg "ls: /etc/ndiswrapper: No such file or directory")

ndiswrapper -m

modprobe ndiswrapper

iwconfig wlan0 key restricted 1234567890

iwconfig wlan0 essid youressid

ifconfig wlan0 192.168.69.69 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

route add default gw 192.168.69.2
