[SOLVED] How to set up a D-Link WUA-2340 USB Wireless Adapter

[jkyahoo101]

I am very new to Linux and would like to know how to set up my wireless adapter. The make and model are in the thread title. I have installed Ubuntu 8.04 on the pc. Thanks for any help.

Sorry for bumping but I really need help on this. I need it done by tomorrow sometime.

Does anyone know?

One solution (dirty, but will most likely work) is using ndiswrapper. Installation guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...hlight=wg311v2

And the drivers located here: ftp://ftp.dlink.com/Wireless/wua2340...driver_140.zip

You might be able to get it working.

I hope this helps.

That does not help at all. It is way too confusing. Like I said I am very new to Linux. Isn't there some built in feature that will allow me to install the drivers for my adapter?

Open up a terminal by going to Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal. Type the following:

sudo iwlist wlan0 scan

Tell me what the output of that is.
