Title: Driver For Zd1211b Usb Wifi Adaptor
Post by: j.t. on November 15, 2006, 04:17:42 pm
Would someone please compile this driver for OZ 3.5.4.1?  I tried using the zd1211.ipk in the feed but it's a no go with my adaptor.

http://atheros.com/RD/downloads/download_ZD1211B.htm (http://atheros.com/RD/downloads/download_ZD1211B.htm)

After looking at the driver doc I believe they use the same source the only difference being:
make ZD1211REV_B=0 (0 for ZD1211, 1 for ZD1211B)

Any assistance is appreciated

Hi !
I've got the driver for the 2.4.20 Cacko kernel but, it's useless since the adaptor draws too much power on the USB bus to work properly. I see "MaxPower 500mA" above, so you may be in the same case. Anyway, if it works, please tell me where you bought it because some guys have found keys[ which are less power hungry.
Cheers,
  Ludo.

ldrolez, I would be interested in that driver and script if it would work with  SL-C1000.
Would you mind sharing, and how do you install it?

Thanks, Wallie

Seems to work, but as already mentioned the power consumption is too much for the Clamshells (The stick needs ~195mA during network scan).
Here's what i got with a Yakumo Quickwlan USB 54:

...
usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0xace/0x1215) is not claimed by any active driver.
ZD1211B - [a href=\"http://zd1211.ath.cx/]http://zd1211.ath.cx/[/url] - SVN_TRUNK

zd1205: (exit) zd1205_init, src/zd1205.c line 8570
...

I will try to use a hub with external power supply and post my further test results.

Would the 1211b driver for the 1215 wifi stick?  If it does any way you can post the compiled driver for the latest cacko.

This would be awesome.

I've looked around and apparently the 1211b driver works for the 1215 device, but I've compiled lud's driver on my 3100 in Cacko and haven't been able to get it recognize the Gigafast WF748-CUI usb wifi I have which has the ZyDas 1215 chipset.
