Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Atheros and Linux

 

You don't mention which Linux or which way application you are using on Linux. Perhaps you could plug in an USB wi-fi adapter that is seen in Linux, or try various Linux Live CDs/DVDs to see which one has the best support for the built-in hardware?

Does anyone have information about an Acer computer with Atheros network specifications? Here are the specifications:

- I am using a Acer Aspire 5349-2899 laptop

- Intel B815

- Acer Nplify 802.11 b/g/n

- Ethernet controller AR5B125

- Atheros driver v1.0.0.43

- IPv4 Address 192.168.2.3

- Default Gateway / DHCP server 192.168.2.1

- IPv4 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0

I use this chipset on my Windows 7 based computer. When I try to run both Windows and Linux on the same computer using their method to do this, I cannot connect using Linux. Why not? Do I need to use only one OS or the other?

Thank you,

Jim
