Gateway 7422gx
- Chipset: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03)
- Device ID: 14e4:4320
- Driver: http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/drivers.php and select "BCMWL564: 64-bit generic Broadcom 54g"
Info
Tested on Fedora Core 3 (x86_64), with ndiswrapper 1.0 and 2.6.10-1.766_FC3. Use the 64-bit drivers. 32-bit drivers do not work with this 64bit os and AMD64 chip. Copy the "ifcfg-eth0" file in /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices to "ifcfg-wlan0". edit adding "ESSID=youressid" and "KEY=yourwepkey" if necessary.
You can then activate it using the Redhat "network" GUI tool. You can activate it and deactivate it from there, and set it to start on boot.
