Here, I'll tell you what, as you think it's so amazingly simple, please give me instructions for installing a Belkin F5D7000 (Broadcom chipset, supported under ndiswrapper) Wireless NIC on Ubuntu, I'd also need to specify a WEP key.

I await your oh so simple, guaranteed to work instructions, I'll then get my non-technical girlfriend to follow them, but that shouldn't be a problem, according to you all she has to do is type 4 commands, so, feel like a challenge or are you going to cop out?[/QUOTE]

Funny you should say that. I already have a Belkin F5D7050, and it installed fine for me. All I did was read the readme file and typed what it told me to type. No real magic, or independent thought to it.

I never said the instructions were guaranteed to work (noone can say that about anything, including XP). You didn't seem to read me the first time, i'll repeat. I didn't say Linux was easy (it isn't). You still only enter 4 commands wether you think that is easy or not.
