Do you still have the box it came in? Normally that would give you the
version #. What about any information on the card ...normally in the form of
a sticker... Etc?

Subject: [TriLUG] Finding the chipset of my Linksys WUSB54G

Hi all,

I just bought a linksys WUSB54G USB wireless NIC and am using the
ndiswrapper adapter so that I can use the drivers that came on the CD, even
though I'm running Linux. Trouble is, the CD has drivers for versions 1, 2,
3 and 4. I can't begin to guess hardware I have. I tried 4, and it didn't
work (though I have no idea if that's WHY it didn't work).

I tried lspci, but it doesn't list any of my USB stuff, including the
wireless NIC and my Epson scanner, which has worked perfectly for years.

So how do I find the version or chipset of my new Linksys WUSB54G wireless
network card? Anyone have any tips for troubleshooting this thing? I have
only one access point and one wireless NIC, so I can't even be sure the
access point is working (drakroam says there are no access points nearby,
even though I configured the access point to advertise its SSID.

Thanks

SteveT
