• speedtouch 580 driver

I’ve never written about this before because there’s no driver to use, you simply don’t need any. A router is not a modem, a router is a machine in itself, and so, you only need to configure the communication between two machines, your computer and the computer named router SpeedTouch 580.

My router came with these default parameters:

• user: admin
• password: (en blanco)
• IP address: 192.168.0.1

You should read the manual to see the defaults for your router. I’ll assume that your router has the same IP as mine:

1. Attach an ethernet wire between your computer and the router. The ethernet port is the one marked in green.
2. Use an appropriate address in your computer (like 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0) and use the router address as default gateway.
   • Linux:Open a root console and type
     ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 192.168.0.1
   • Windows: Type the values in TCP/IP configuration under Network properties
   • Mac: I don’t know.
3. Type in an internet browser the address of the router, 192.168.0.1, and use your user and password to access the router configuration page. Follow the instructions in the manual.
4. If you have questions use the comments and I’ll try to solve them

apt-get updateapt-get install wpasupplicant

Una vez instalado, en /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/examples/ tenemos una versión anotada y con múltiples ejemplos del archivo de configución wpa_supplicant.conf, debemos copiarlo al directorio /etc

cp /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/examples/wpa_supplicant.conf

Ahora editamos el archivo /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
Primero eliminamos, todas las entradas network que hay al final del archivo y las cambiamos por una que represente nuestra red, así, si lo queremos conectar al router SpeedTouch 580, añadiremos (sirve para casi cualquier router):

network={
ssid="[ElSidDeTuPuntoDeAcceso]"
#psk="[LaClavePSKEnTextoPlano]"
psk=[LaClavePSKEnHexadecimal]
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
proto=WPA
priority=2
}

Podéis ver que he comentado la clave en texto plano y la he puesto en hexadecimal, esto es recomendable por que así el wpa_supplicant no tendráque calcularla cada vez. Para obtenerla debéis ejecutar

wpa_passphrase [ElSsidDeTuPuntoDeAcceso] [LaClavePSKEnTextoPlano]

El Ssid es el que hayáis configurado en el punto de acceso (en el SpeedTouch 580 en la pestaña inalámbrica) y la clave PSK, la que hayáis configurado en el punto de acceso (en el SpeedTouch 580 en la pestaña seguridad dentro de inalámbrica (tenéis que tener activada la seguridad de nivel 2))
Ya sólodebéis levantar la interfaz inalámbrica

ifconfig wlan0 ip [TuIP]

Y arrancar el wpa_supplicant

wpa_supplicant -Dndiswrapper -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd

Con la opción -dd lo que hacemos es que nos de mucha información sobre lo que está haciendo. De todos modos, siguiendo estos pasos debería funcionar sin problemas, con lo que tras comprobar que funciona bien podemos eliminarlo y arrancarlo como demonio.]]>

There are two ways to do it:

1. Non geek version
   If you’re pretty new to Debian this may be the best way for you:
   • Install the binary packages and the kernel for them. In this moment newest version for a pentium IV is

     apt-get install ndiswrapper-modules-2.6.8-2-686 kernel-image-2.6.8-2

   • Boot the machine with this kernel. Simply turn off the computer and boot it again. In the boot manager (whether grub, or lilo) choose linux-2.6.8-2.
   • Download the driver for Windows (yes, it’s not April’s Fool, I said the seven chars O.S.) from SpeedTouch. The ETSI driver is for E.U. and the FCC one for the U.S.A. (and allows two channels less than the ETSI one)
   • Unzip the file.

     unzip Windows_Instaler_ST121g_R1.0_ETSI.zip

   • Look for a file called BT4501G.inf which is under Installer/Driver/
   • Rename the file to BT4501G.INF

     mv BT4501G.inf BT4501G.INF

   • Plug the SpeedTouch 121g in any USB dock.
   • Let’s install the driver with ndiswrapper.

     ndiswrapper -i BT4501G.INF

   • Type

     ndiswrapper -l

     A message will appear saying that the driver is installed and the hardware present.

   • Now we must load the kernel module

     modprobe ndiswrapper

   • A green light will appear in the USB dongle, now let’s config the wlan.

     iwconfig wlan0 mode "Managed"
     iwconfig wlan0 essid "[YourNetworkName]"
     iwconfig wlan0 key "s:[YourNetworkPassword]"

     I was only able to make this work with a 12 chars password

   • Finaly we bring up the interface

     ifconfig wlan0 [ip] netmask [máscara] up

   • Example:

     iwconfig wlan0 mode "Managed"
     iwconfig wlan0 essid "SuperCoco"
     iwconfig wlan0 key "s:EstoEsArriba"
     ifconfig wlan0 192.168.0.128 netmask 255.255.255.0

2. Normal Version
   If you compiled your own kernel:
   • Get the source code for ndiswrapper

     apt-get install ndiswrapper-source

   • Go to /usr/src and untar the source

     cd /usr/srctar xjvf ndiswrapper-source.tar.bz2

   • Now it depends how you compiled your kernel
     1. If you did it The Debian Way (best option I think, There is a good tutorial in myrddin), you must just type

        cd linuxmake-kpkg modules-image --added-modules ndiswrapper

        Finally install the debian package that will be under /usr/src using dpkg

     2. If you compiled your kernel ‘as ussual’ you should know how to build the kernel module
   • From here on just follow the instructions for non-geeks
