[SOLVED] No WLAN hardware (AR9285) in Network Wizard

#1 Post by olaf »

Hi!

puppy-4.2-retro-2.6.21.7-seamonkey on USB-Stick.
Setup -> Connect to Internet or Intranet -> eth0, but no WLAN listed

There is nothing listed for WLAN in lsmod.
lspci -nn shows
..."00:07.0 Class 0280: 168c:002b (rev 01)"

Suse (SLES) tell me it is an working Atheros AR9285 PCI Express in my HP-Laptop.

How can I get this working on puppy? (and with WPA)


EDIT:
puppy version was too old. I tried precise-5.4.3 now and the hardware AR9285 is detected. But it does not work, when I start a network scan

But I think this is not the correct topic for this new problem.

Bye
Olaf
