Netgear N600 wnda3100v2

Legacy Netrunner 14.x

Hi,
I have been trying to get this working for the last couple of days. I have followed pretty much every possible way to connect to the Netgear n600 usb card. I can see it fine but when it tries to connect all it does is continiously ask for the router password.

ndiswrapper -l

The WPA password is correct yet everything seems right but it won’t connect at all.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

Bad news my friend, that chip set (BCM4323) doesn’t seem to work under Linux, not even using the Windows drivers (ndiswrapper), every thread I’ve read online the y ended up getting a different adapter.

Does look that way I pretty much tried everything with no luck.

Thanks
David:huh:
