installing usb d-link 502t adsl router

Submitted by شخص خجول مجهول on Fri, 12/08/2005 - 17:46.

Please help me connect my adsl router which is the d-link 502t in linux. I use Biz-Elx desktop with a redhat core. I connected the router with usb. It gets detected in kudzu and the proper name is also shown. But the hardware browser shows drivers unknown for this device. Where can i get the driver for my router and how do i configure firefox or any other browser or software to access the net. What is the name of the file which is used to access this device from /dev.

first you need a driver

first you need a driver for it. use google to find it

use ethernet make things easier


-I used to be indecisive .. but now I'm not so sure

In Case you have an Ethernet

In Case you have an Ethernet Card , use the Ethernet port on the router, then you won't need a driver

as you've already GooGled for

as you've already GooGled for those drivers and you couldn't find any , you got two solutions left :

1 - Buy an Ethernet card ( which is very cheap )
2 - Do some Reverse engineering , Make your own driver

so whatever is suitable for you , simply do it ;)
