Hi All,
A friend gave me a Belkin F5D7050 USB wifi adaptor which I am struggling to
get going. I checked the Wiki which describes how to use ndiswrapper but it
also mentions that there are drivers in portage for this purpose.
http://gentoo-wiki.com/Belkin_F5D7050
I opted for the latter, set the rt73usb USE flag and emerged the rt2x00
drivers.
However I still cannot see my new device as a network interface. Can you
help?
