This document provides instructions for compiling and installing the VT6655 and VT6656 Linux driver and configuring it for various wireless security modes. Key steps include: 1. Unpacking the driver source code and dependencies. 2. Compiling the driver, wpa_supplicant, and OpenSSL. 3. Configuring the driver for open, WEP, WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK networks through iwconfig commands and editing the wpa_supplicant.conf file.

Refer to /VT665x_Linux_src_v1.1x_x86/linux.txt file.
2.2
Contents of the Subdirectory
Refer to /VT665x_Linux_src_v1.1x_x86/linux.txt file.
3. Compile and Install driver
Notice: here, I compile and install VT6655_linux_src_v1.18.05_x86, please use your driver
replace it and if you use VT6656 do this, please use vntwusb.ko replace viawget.ko that
appearing in the guide.
Open the computer and run Linux operating system, you must do all the steps here as the
root user. Please make sure your root login. By the way , make sure you have installed
essential compilation tools , build-essential and linux-headers-xxxx.
First, copy the driver package to your directory. Here, I copy the driver to /home directory.
Enter your directory.
cd /home
Then, we unpack the driver source code and openssl-0.9.8a
unzip VT6655_Linux_src_v1.18.05_x86.zip
cd VT6655_Linux_src_v1.18.05_x86/wpa_supplicant
unzip openssl-0.9.8a.zip
3.1 Compile the driver
cd /home/ VT6655_Linux_src_v1.18.05_x86
make clean
make install
cd /home/ VT6655_Linux_src_v1.18.05_x86/wpa_supplicant/openssl-0.9.8a
make install
cd /home/ VT6655_Linux_src_v1.18.05_x86/ wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-0.5.8
make install
If you execute make clean, and then detect error:

4. VIA VT6655 and VT6656 linux driver
User’s Guide
Makefile: 23: *** Linux kernel source not found.
You can execute this instruction for link the source in to the kernels binary directory.
ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-‘uname –r’ /lib/modules/‘uname –r’/source
3.2 Install the driver
cd /home/ VT6655_Linux_src_v1.18.05_x86/driver
insmod viawget.ko
If you execute insmod, appear insmod: error inserting ‘viawget.ko’:-1 File exists.
Then, remove the driver: rmmod viawget.ko, execute insmod viawget.ko again.
4.
Driver Configuration/Parameters
The driver can be configured via two interfaces; 1) command and configuration files 2)
network manager and now we use command and configuration files to run the driver.
In next chapter, we will introduce the network manager.
Notice: Don’t use command mode and network manager at the same time.
4.1
OPEN MODE
You can execute iwconfig instruction to obtain the wireless device interface. If you have
some issue, execute man iwconfig for more information.
iwconfig
Then, we can configurate the ESSID and Network address.
iwconfig interface [essid {desired ssid}]
iwconfig eth1 essid WPSE
ifconfig interface [IP address |up|down]
ifconfig eth1 up
ifconfig eth1 192.168.11.127
Verify whether your wireless device is connected or not.
ping 192.168.11.1
Ok, if this information appearing in the screen. You are successful!

WEP MODE
May be your wireless router can be configured to shared key wep mode. That is the same as
the open-wep mode.
