Some device drivers don’t work very well with certain wireless adapters, so you may need to find a better one.

# Odpravljanje težav z brezžičnimi omrežji

Prepričajte se, da so nameščeni delujoči gonilniki naprave

Pri tem koraku lahko preverite, če lahko gonilnike naprav za brezžično kartico spravite k delovanju. Gonilnik naprave je program, ki računalniku pove kako spraviti napravo strojne opreme k delovanju. Tudi če računalnik prepozna brezžično kartico, morda nima gonilnikov, ki delujejo zelo dobro. Morda boste lahko našli druge gonilnike za brezžično kartico, ki delujejo. Poskusite nekaj od možnosti spodaj:

Check to see if your wireless adapter is on a list of supported devices.

Most Linux distributions keep a list of wireless devices that they have support for. Sometimes, these lists provide extra information on how to get the drivers for certain adapters working properly. Go to the list for your distribution (for example, Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora or openSUSE) and see if your make and model of wireless adapter is listed. You may be able to use some of the information there to get your wireless drivers working.

Look for restricted (binary) drivers.

Many Linux distributions only come with device drivers which are free and open source. This is because they cannot distribute drivers which are proprietary, or closed-source. If the correct driver for your wireless adapter is only available in a non-free, or “binary-only” version, it may not be installed by default. If this is the case, look on the wireless adapter manufacturer’s website to see if they have any Linux drivers.

Nekatere distribucije Linux imajo orodje, ki lahko za vas prejme omejene gonilnike. Če vaša distribucija vsebuje to orodje, ga uporabite. Morda lahko za vas najde brezžične kartice.

Use the Windows drivers for your adapter.

In general, you cannot use a device driver designed for one operating system (like Windows) on another operating system (like Linux). This is because they have different ways of handling devices. For wireless adapters, however, you can install a compatibility layer called NDISwrapper which lets you use some Windows wireless drivers on Linux. This is useful because wireless adapters almost always have Windows drivers available for them, whereas Linux drivers are sometimes not available. You can learn more about how to use NDISwrapper here. Note that not all wireless drivers can be used through NDISwrapper.

Če nobena od teh možnosti ne deluje, boste morda želeli preizkusiti drugo brezžično kartico za ogled, če jo lahko spravite k delovanju. Brezžične kartice USB so precej poceni in jih lahko vklopite v katerikoli računalnik. Preden brezžično kartico kupite, preverite da je združljiva z vašo distribucijo Linux.
