Planex GW-CF11X - can't run on familiar 8.4,
wlan0: cannot set RID fc00 (len=2) - no PRI f/w...

[alhazred]

solved problem:
Add to /etc/pcmcia/hostap_cs.conf :

card "PLANEX COMMUNICXATIONS INC."
manfid 0xd601, 0x0010
bind "hostap_cs"

from :

http://www.red-bean.com/~proski/firmware/1.8.4.tar.bz2

http://www.red-bean.com/~proski/firmware/primary.tar.bz2

get files rf010804.hex and pm010102.hex.

Create script planex.sh:

#!/bin/sh

path="/home/root/wifi"

cardctl scheme default
prism2_srec -gs wlan0 $path/pm010102.hex
prism2_srec -gp wlan0 $path/pm010102.hex
iwpriv wlan0 reset 1
prism2_srec -rp wlan0 $path/rf010804.hex
iwconfig wlan0 mode 2
cardctl scheme planex

Then:
# rmmod hostap_cs
# modprobe hostap_cs ignore_cis_vcc=1
insert card, then run planex.sh...

One question: I wrote "ignore_cis_vcc=1" in /etc/pcmcia/hostap_cs, /etc/modules, /etc/modules.conf but familiar recognized card only after rrmod-modprobe...
