Dlink 650+ Wireless card working with acx100sta driver..
Well I finally got my Dlink 650+ working on RedHat 8 with 2.4.18-14 kernel..
You can get the driver at:
http://www.ivor.it/wireless/acx.html
You will need to install wirelesstools before you do anything with the above driver, from:
http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_...nux/Tools.html
....1. tar -xvzf wireless_tools.25.tar.gz
.....2. cd to wirelesstools directory
.....3. make
.....4. copy the executables to /sbin/
..................cp iwevent iwgetid iwspy iwpriv iwconfig iwlist /sbin/
Now install the acx driver module,
....1. tar -xvzf acx100_bin_20030608.tgz
....2. As root
............./sbin/insmod yourpath/Acx100Drv/2.4.18-14/acx100sta-2.4.18-14.o
....3. Add the following to /etc/modules.conf
............alias eth1 acx100sta
Create the file: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
Heres what i use which seems to work:
DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=192.168.1.101
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
ONBOOT=yes
WIRELESS=yes
ESSID=youressidhere
MODE=2
CHANNEL=4
KEY=s:yourasciikeyhere
Note the "s:" b/4 your ascii key... This threw me off for a while..
Now you should be able to activate eth1 with the gnome network tool..
