Linksys WMP54G v4 54mbps

  • Chipset: Ralink RT2500
  • pciid: 1814:0201
  • Driver 0: Native GPL Ralink driver in Ubuntu Breezy (rt2500 and rt2500-source packages). Installed the source and manually built with 'make'. Then used Gnome's network configuration to setup the device. Seems to perform as well as Windows version, but haven't tried WEP or WPA. My card was labeled WMP54G (EU), bought in 11/2005.
  • Driver 1: RT2500.inf from the WMP54Gv4 directory on the CD (the bundled CD has both v2 and v4 drivers), or download the drivers straight from Linksys.

Info

Debian Sarge, 2.4 kernel, and 128-bit WEP. Works great. Also works with Mandrake 10.1 with the newest versions of Ndiswrapper, not the one included on the installation CD.

Note that Ralink has provided the source for an official driver at http://www.ralinktech.com/supp-1.htm but I have not tested it yet.
