Summary: NdisWrapper binary loader utility |
Ndiswrapper implements the Windows kernel APIs within the Linux kernel. This allows you to use a Windows driver for a wireless network card. The driver runs natively, as though it is in Windows, without binary emulation. This is not ideal, but is useful when a vendor does not provide Linux drivers and no free and open driver exists. With ndiswrapper, most miniPCI (builtin), PCI, PCMCIA (Cardbus only) or USB wireless network adapteers work in Linux. Although ndiswrapper is intended for wireless network cards, other devices are known to work, such as ethernet cards, USB to serial port device, and home phone network devices. Note that ndiswrapper is known to cause occational computer lockups.
