Title: ZyXEL N300
Post by: iwar on April 10, 2014, 03:36:48 PM

I having trouble with i guess drivers, i have a new wireless Adapter. and it vill not work in LL i tryedit on 3 diffrent computers with Linux lite,  but goes fine in win and on a Manjaro computer  Manjaro is Arch kan i take a driver from that system or how can i get a working driver for Linux lite. I have tryed 1.06 and 1.08
It seems to me that ZyXel have changed the adapter i had one same but older ca 2 years that one goes fine in LL but i gave it to a friend and got my self a new that dont works. :( the reseller gave me another one but the same problem.

Hello!

It would be handy to know what chipset the ZyXEL uses. In a terminal, run this command:

Code: [Select]

lspci -nn -s 0c:00.0
and post the result.

Dollars to doughnuts says it's a Broadcom. Most of the rest are natively supported in the Linux kernel...

Hello!

I went to ZyXEL's website, and it says NWD2205 (N300) is based on a Realtek chipset, which SHOULD be supported in the kernel...
