Ok ok...so I just got Suse Linux 10.0 three days ago. I've always been a Mac and Windows user and have NO clue what I'm doing on Linux.. PLEASE HELP ME!! So here goes.. I built a small computer for my sister to access the internet and decided to buy Suse Linux 10.0 for security reasons (vs Windows and all its virus problems). After I installed the Gnome desktop I tried poppin on the Netgear WPN111 Wireless USB Adapter, but when trying to run the .exe it didn't work. Now I'm not completely ignorant, but I thought I'd give it a try anyway. HELP ME!! What do I do now? Am I helpless? Is there a driver for it? How would I install something like that (keep in mind I've had it for 3 days) ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED! -Thanks in advanced -ungottable P.S.-Also, what recommendations would you have to better the Linux experience(add-ons, software, etc)?

OMG! I AM SO SORRY!! The whole time I've been saying that I have a WPN111 it's actually been WG111T.. I am so sorry I had it confused for the one I used to have that stopped working. They both look the same and everything so I thought they were the same... Please forgive me. I guess we're back to square one. Ok, So here is some additional information that I have gathered from inserting the cd that came with the device in a windows os computer.. hope it helps: Resource CD: Version 1.1 Files on cd that look like they might be the one's I need: Within the ndis5 folder: ar5523(BIN File)-151kb athfmwdl(Security Catalog)-0kb athfmwdl(Setup Information)-2kb athfmwdl(ATHEROS USB Driver/System File)-43kb netwg11t(Security Catalog)-0kb netwg11t(Setup Information)-18kb wg11tnd5(WG111T Wireless NDIS 5 Driver/System File)-279kb Also on CD: autorun(System Information)-1kb AUTORUN(AUTORUN MFC Application)-904kb Here is my exact device on Netgear's website: http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/WG111T.asp Again, I am so sorry we started out on the wrong foot with false information. I had a WPN111 but it died so i got the WG111T thinking it was the same device; so I gave you the information from the wrong box..Now I throw away the wrong box and have only the WPN111 box with its documentation, and not the WG111T. Just by chance I still have the WG111T Resource CD, so I can't tell you exactly what build my device is once more...sorry. Hopefully the information provided up top will be enough.. Thanks again for having patience with me, you guys have been great! -ungottable

First of all...Thanks for your quick replies guys! I have the CD that came with the device and the device itself..I bought it at best buy 1 week ago... I don't know exactly what build it is or what chip it's using, but I know it's new lol. Sorry I cant be more specific on the device itself, but I hope the information I provided helps both of us. Hope to hear from you guys/gals soon! -ungottable
