If so, copy the file to your home directory (Places > Home Folder) in Ubuntu. If like me you don't have a wired connection you'll be having to do this on another machine. At the time of writing this was version 1.52.

You should be able to download the latest version by finding NDISwrapper on SourceForge. Having the latest version may be advantageous anyway, and I learned a lot through doing my first Linux build, so this is the method I will detail here. I failed to get either of these to work due to the CD corruption mentioned above, so I ended up downloading and building the latest version.

You can install it from the Synaptic Package Manager (System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager) or by opening a terminal window and using the apt-get command.

Hopefully others will be able to make use of this. I learned a lot about Linux in a very short space of time by doing this and I'll detail what I learned here. I've decided to document the process I went through to set this up. Unfortunately I found that my Netgear WG111 USB wireless adapter was not currently supported on Linux, and I had to jump through a few hoops to get online. The version I'm using is 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon). I went for Ubuntu, which from what I can tell is one of the most popular distributions. I recently decided I should really start using Linux properly, at least at home.
