Than you must use the Driver from with Project http://zd1211.ath.cx/

But with Project is down, you must also use the vendor based driver in DSL 3.8.11, because with DSL use the Kernel 2.4.x.

I had have the same Problem with DSL 3.8.11, now I`m use DSL 4.2.5, the wlan usb Dongle works there.

Look with Thread:

I'm writing from my DSL box.
It seems that pump have problems.
I used a static IP without using pump and all was OK.
These are the commands I put:

Code Sample

sudo su
insmod zd1211 (then I put the usb dongle)
ifconfig eth0 up
iwlist scan
iwconfig eth0 essid mylan mode managed
ifconfig eth0 192.168.2.111 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default gw 192.168.2.1

Then I wrote in /etc/resolv.conf:

Code Sample

nameserver 192.168.2.1
nameserver 193.205.245.5

I tried to use "pump -i eth0 -h box" but DSL hanged.
Maybe I need another dhcp client. Does anybody know if exists dhclient for DSL?
I'm thinking that maybe the static setup could work even on DSL 3.4.11 :cool:

Hello Terzino, very nice

Which Driver you using?
You use WPA oder WPA2?

I'm using zd1211.o from
"http://users.tpg.com.au/cramond/zydas/ZD1211LnxDrv_2_13_0_0 for kernel 2.4.31.tar.gz"
I'm not using any WPA protection. I only set MAC filtering and put SSID broadcasting disabled on the wifi router.

pump should work with "-i eth0" but it fails.
Do you know any other parameters?
Do you know any other dhcp client for DSL?

You could try changing around the commands... like what was in the link in my last post in this thread, or try to limit the number of commands, etc.

such as:

Code Sample

killall pump
# turn on/plug in usb dongle
insmod zd1211
iwconfig eth0 essid mylan mode managed
pump -i eth0

For another dhcp client, you could try dhcpcd.
