Yeah, you pretty much get to use Windows.

I sent mail to you a while ago about the driver; my biggest gripe is that it doesn't support WEP and unencrypted at the same time as WPA. Can you do a bit more reverse engineering and figure out the WEP structures? I'd be very very happy to do the merge work if you can get a rough cut of what it takes to set WEP keys with the new firmware interface.

Newer firmware have some use with the Linux driver. _______________________________________________ Airo-wpa-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/airo-wpa-dev
