For more information, see Does Microsoft Windows automatically install NETGEAR network adapters? Because NETGEAR does not have access to and cannot provide support for built-in Windows drivers, we recommend that you install the official NETGEAR drivers for your WiFi USB adapter. If your computer uses Microsoft Windows 7 or newer, Windows might automatically install drivers for your adapter when you plug it in. If your computer does not have a drive that reads CDs, download the software for your WiFi adapter from the NETGEAR Download Center. Happy reading and welcome to the world Linux – you will not regret it.The easiest way to set up your NETGEAR WiFi USB adapter is with the NETGEAR Resource CD included with your adapter. Try especially the following document called “Using the Command Line” which will certainly get you started. I am sorry but I don’t have the time to teach how to move around int the shell but luckily there is plenty of good documentation: “chmod +x” adds executable permissions to the argument and in my case I used this to make the script wol.sh executable.Īre you sure you shell said “ushc”? I think you might have made a type in the filename or on the command you wrote in console? The comand “chmod” changes permissions for files and folders. So now that /etc is established, /etc/init.d/ contain all the control scripts for most of the daemons you on the machine. The following seems as a decent introduction: If you are in doubt about other folders try googling “Linux Filesystem Hierarchy” which should give plenty reading on the subject. Noobie: /etc is a folder on the filesystem that traditionally contains all configuration files for the programs installed. First I see what is supported by network driver: To enable WOL from Linux the option has to be set before shutting Linux down. I selected the fan called “advanced” where I found to settings I need to turn on: After selecting “configure” as in the screenshot: In Windows I need to go to the network setting and choose my network adapter. It always takes more screenshots to explain anything in Windows, but there is not really any way around it. A good indicator is to check whether the lights around the network cable is turned on or not on the back of the computer when the computer has been shutdown. I didn’t find it in the BIOS of my ASUS PW5 DH motherboard, but it works fine. Somewhere in the BIOS there will hopefully be some setting to enable WOL.
