INPROCOMM IPN 2220 Wireless LAN Adapter problem in Ubuntu
Now, I am using Ubuntu without looking back to my WinXp. The installation went fine via wubi. Now I am in dual boot environment. All screen, audio, touchpad is ok, but the wireless is not visible in my network manager.
I start by checking the restricted driver and no proprietory driver is detected. strange. After googling for few hours, I found solutions, by using ndiswrapper. My wireless chipset is INPROCOMM IPN 2220 Wireless LAN Adapter, download it via here .
Install ndiswrapper and ndiswrapper utils
sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common
sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
extract the driver and issue this command
sudo ndiswrapper -i /home/sicksand/Desktop/driver/Winxp/neti2220.inf
check if the driver is installed
ndiswrapper -l
neti2220 : driver installed
device 17FE:2220 present
now, load the module and check for error
sudo depmod -a
sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
now you can see network manager and wireless shoud be visible by now. now to load it at startup
sudo ndiswrapper -m
edit file /etc/modules and add “ndiswrapper” (without the quote) and the eof, save it and you’re done.
