Hi, I´m trying to configure a D Link dwl g 122 wireless usb adapter. This is what the system detects:
-----------------------------------
llg Adapter
sh rt2870sta-firmware: unknown operand
* loaded module: rt2800usb
rt2870sta
sed: unmatched '/'
-----------------------------------
I suppose that the right driver needed is rt2870sta and that the other one is loaded automatically by Slitaz, but it doesn't work for this type of usb adapater. I have the original CD with the drivers, but I can´t make it work on Slitaz. I don´t know how to extract these drivers from the Cd, although I try it asks me for some commmands. Am I in the right way? Thanks for your help.

I have a ralink usb adapter that loads the same 2 modules.
The rt2870sta is what works for my adapter.
Which version of slitaz are you running ?
The new Slitaz-4.0-RC2 include's the firmware-rt2x00 on the live cd and different wifi configuration than older versions which don't include the firmware.
You need unload rt2870sta and rt2800usb install firmware-rt2x00.tazpkg unless your using Slitaz-4.0-RC2
#/etc/init.d/networking.sh stop
#modprobe -r rt2800usb
#modprobe -r rt2870sta
#tazpkg -gi firmware-rt2x00
#modprobe rt2870sta
#/etc/init.d/networking
Configure the network:
#leafpad /etc/network.conf
Restart network:
#/etc/init.d/network.sh start
If you want more help:
#tazpkg -gi usbutils
#lsusb
Give me the complete output line with the wireless adapter including all numbers.

I have the same thing. But it does not connect on RC2:

Understandably I would like to be able to use the other one as well as the ZyAir cannot do WPA. But I find it to be not sporty to apply ndiswrapper. @mojo: do we have a chance without it?

I also have a usb dwl122, and I work when this file in / lib / firmware
http://www.4shared.com/file/MFSaHzFp/file.html
then charged with modprobe rt73usb and wifibox it is seen that already starts to operate.
then configuring the file / etc / network.conf is completely usable.

I realized that I did recently trade in information, I started to transfer of freefilehosting, unfortunately that file was still in the old.
If there are problems with the new, please say so I will create another account of those recommended.

Your file, @gibor, did not work as well - with this card until now only Windows 7 was able to connect.
iwconfig always shows this:
wlan0 Ralink STA ESSID:"" Nickname:""
Mode:Auto Frequency=2.412 GHz
Link Quality=10/100 Signal level:0 dBm Noise level:-143 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
But in the /etc/network.conf
it is written correctly including this WEP key. ,,As if" the device cannot recognize what is written in its configuration file.
Another strange thing: I cannot connect to tazpanel
root@slitaz:/mnt/sda1/Users/michael/Downloads# tazpkg recharge

I'm no expert, but I think that more than 30 users that I have recommended this file, I have confirmed that they have succeeded.
We look to the opinions of the technicians.

The dlink dwl122 has been manufactured with many different chipsets.
The firmware must match the hardware.

firmware-rt2x00 => 148f:3070
michaelbischof dwl122 with 148F:3070 ?

@gibor
Thanks for your help :-)
@michaelbischof
For now there are other more important issues with slitaz I must address.
Later I will search google to see if anyone else has a solution.
Offline
@mojo @gibor
Thanks to both of you! Do not misunderstand me: I have several possibilities to get Internet under Slitaz RC2, including one ZyAir old USB-device. It is just kind of sport do reach at least what is possible under Windows with Linux, though it is by no means fair sport according to the behaviours of the vendors. Wit ZyAir only WEP is possible, no WPA.
No need to hurry then!

For version dlink dwl 122 with id 148f: 3070
To try to compile the source I downloaded from the Ralink site archive
http://www.ralinktech.com/en/04_support/license.php?sn=5021
unpacking and following the instructions I got form rt2870sta.ko
to test only on kernel 2.6.37 directly download and install
http://www.freefilehosting.net/rt2870-firmware-build
and "modprobe rt2870sta" load the driver,
good luck

Thanks a lot! Download, installation and modprobing worked ok - but again no connection. I most likely have to try nidiswrapper with this particular usb-card, ach! :-(
From the net I learned that, for.example, with Ubuntu this thing worked, with some other distributions it did not work.
Ok, one can live with that - though it is a pity, of course.
Thanks for your help! Can you understand German? I try to give something back (without being able to translate into Italian)
Offline
Thanks to anything, SliTaz I'm passionate and I like to discover more and more his world.
Too bad it still does not work, only two things that I can still say
There is a patch to be applied in the compilation (but I have not found)
You can see in previous posts that you have a low signal, and some users with the key of my kind I have reported a lower sensitivity than windows.
Unfortunately I do not understand German but with the translator, but thanks anyway :-)
Offline
Heureka!
With your package it finally worked out, @gibor! Thanks a lot. But do not ask my why it happened today and not yesterday - I do not believe in magic but this is beyond what I can imagine! ;-)
It is Slitaz 4.0 RC3.

@mojo: you were right, of course! It was this type of cardd: Bus 001 Device 004: ID 148f:3070
But to be frank: the connection seems somewhat slow and often breaks. There is still kind of disharmony in this setup if you apologize my non-technical way of describing it. A much older zd1204-card (which cannot do WPA) is much safer.
Offline
As a short note: I was not able today to repeat that. I never got a lease. The configuration looked ok.
- I am behind a Telekom-router which sends wireless if a want it. It works with WEP.
