 +**NOTE** wireless modules **rt2x00** are now in the vanilla kernel (at least in 2.6.26). We use the **''rt73usb''** one.
  
 Compiling this modules requires the **the source tree of your running kernel**, and the relative **kernel headers**. In Debian this menas installing two packages: **linux-source-$(uname -r | cut -f1 -d-)** and **linux-headers-$(uname -r)**. Compiling this modules requires the **the source tree of your running kernel**, and the relative **kernel headers**.

 +Con il modulo **zd1211rw** del kernel 2.6.26 vengono attivati due device, un **wmaster0** (l'interfaccia //fisica//) e un **''wlan0_rename''** (l'interfaccia logica WiFi da usare con ''iwconfig'' e ''ifconfig''). Per dare un nome umano al device conviene aggiungere una riga in **''/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules''**, per effettuare il match non basta il MAC address, serve anche **''ATTR{type}=="1"''**:
