Help with intel wireless/pro 3945ABG and BT4

Hi,

BT4 succesfuly installed on my dell inspiron 1505/6400
i tried different solution to add/install or configure my wireless card...but ive been unsuccesful

i'm new to debian-based linux, but used to rpm-based distro.
here's what i tried:

sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

downloaded with wget the ipwraw-ng
went to its dir.

make
sudo make install
sudo make install_ucode
echo "blacklist ipwraw" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ipwraw
sudo depmod -ae

sudo modprobe -r ipw3945
sudo modprobe ipwraw

and it doesnt show up in iwconfig...what to do ???

None of this is necessary in Backtrack 4, all you need to do is

Code:

airmon-ng start wlan0

and it will create the mon0 interface. You now have wlan0 in managed mode and mon0 in monitor mode.

did u try "/etc/init.d/NetworkManager start"? like thunderwing said none of this is necessary cause all the drivers are already there.
