Hi, maybe this one might help: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/WLAN/Karten/D-Link Since I have been trying in vain to get my Squeeze 2.6.32-5-686 run one of those adaptors: {USB_DEVICE(0x07D1,0x3c09)}, /* D-Link System DWA-140 RangeBooster N Adapter(rev.B1) [Ralink RT2870] */ {USB_DEVICE(0x0DF6,0x0040)}, /* Sitecom WL-344 Wireless USB Adapter 300N X2*/ I would like to ask the question the other way round. Is anybody out there running Squeeze 2.6.32-5-686 on a desktop using a wlan- usb-adaptor at 54 or better at 300 N successfully? Which brand of USB-adaptor? Configuration? I'll go out and buy this one instead of fooling around with the above mentioned. Reason why: a friend of mine told me, that these parts of the kernel are older than the adaptors and so don't support recent adaptors. True?
