Hi

have the same problem here.
"
i tried alot of things now. but nothing realy seems to work.

My researches are telling me that it does not make any sense to load backtrack into a VM. Because its quiet hard/impossible to use backtrack with 100%.
So i organized myself a USB Harddisk. I setup this USB drive with "LiLi USB Creator" like a CD since our Zenbook has no optical drive like CD/DVD/Blueray.
Fat32 is the actuall format for the drive. I turned the first partition into "active"

My researches tells me that the Asus Ux31a Ultrabook uses a Intel Centrino Advanced-N Advanced-N 6235 Chip for WLAN
This are the Firmware/drivers i found for this Wlan Chip
iwlwifi-6000g2b-ucode-18.168.6.1.tgz

But in the end. i cant solve the problem with inserting the drivers. The file itself ends with .ucode. One of googles answers was to put this into the /lib/firmware.

But something is missing. I think i miss a command to load this into the running system. and i cant find any answers.

Missing this ?

% tar xvf iwlwifi-1.2.25.tgz
% cd iwlwifi-1.2.25
% make
% make install
Still looking for answers.

If anybody have a Idea. Let us know.

Still no real progress.

I have download this Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 Firmware. Link


% tar xvf iwlwifi-6000g2b-ucode-18.168.6.1.tgz

% cp iwlwifi-6000g2b-ucode-18.168.6.1/iwlwifi-6000g2b.ucode /lib/firmware/

And now... i have no idea.

iwconfig and same commands still answer with "lo no wireless"

Please remeber i run it from a Live CD (USB Drive)

My logic tells me the drivers are in the right location. But still missing to load into the linux core. i am right?

Fn + Wlan Button ends with no working results.

No wireless card found with iwconfig.

do i need to?

% tar xvf iwlwifi-1.2.25.tgz
