The radio, however, does not seem to be producing any RF output - confirmed by an 802.11 power analyzer connected to either of the antennas. I have tried setting the RFKILL parameter both in software and hardware (blocking the appropriate PCI pin), to no avail. =20 I would welcome any ideas regarding using similar (pciid 0x168c0029) cards with Madwifi. Perhaps someone would have an updated patch (which would be very appreciated)? =20 Michal --=20 ------_=_NextPart_001_01CC941F.77A3BC5F Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Dus-ascii"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2900.3698" name=3DGENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2><SPAN=20 class=3D234102320-26102011>Hello,</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2><SPAN=20 class=3D234102320-26102011></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011>I am = trying to=20 integrate a WLM200N5 minipci 11n/a card (which is, I believe, = AR9220-based,=20 pciid 0x168c0029) into an PPC-based box running = 2.4.24.</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2><SPAN = class=3D234102320-26102011></SPAN></FONT><FONT=20 face=3DArial size=3D2><SPAN = class=3D234102320-26102011></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>I have = patched my=20 copy of the madwifi-devel stream with Mr. Roskin's AR9220=20 patch</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>(found = at=20 </FONT></SPAN><A=20 href=3D"http://madwifi-users.20070.n2.nabble.com/MadWifi-driver-fails-to-= recognize-Ubiquity-card-td5294763.html"><FONT=20 face=3DArial=20 size=3D2>http://madwifi-users.20070.n2.nabble.com/MadWifi-driver-fails-to= -recognize-Ubiquity-card-td5294763.html</FONT></A><FONT=20 face=3DArial><FONT size=3D2>)<SPAN=20 class=3D234102320-26102011>.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial><FONT size=3D2><SPAN=20 class=3D234102320-26102011></SPAN></FONT></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>The = card appears to=20 be working from the software side of things - I can bring up the = interface,=20 setup ssid and a channel, and retrieve stats.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>The = radio, h<SPAN=20 class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial = size=3D2>owever,</FONT></SPAN> does=20 not seem to be producing any RF output - confirmed by an 802.11 power = analyzer=20 connected to either of the antennas.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>I have = tried setting=20 the RFKILL parameter both in software and hardware (blocking the = appropriate PCI=20 pin), to no avail.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial=20 size=3D2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>I = would welcome any=20 ideas regarding using similar (pciid 0x168c0029) cards with Madwifi. = Perhaps=20 someone would have an updated patch (which would be very=20 appreciated)?</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial=20 size=3D2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D234102320-26102011><FONT face=3DArial=20 size=3D2>Michal</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV align=3Dleft><PRE class=3Dmoz-signature>-- = </PRE></DIV></BODY></HTML> ------_=_NextPart_001_01CC941F.77A3BC5F-- --===============2936029571610816235== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The demand for IT networking professionals continues to grow, and the demand for specialized networking skills is growing even more rapidly.
