You can use serial pins on the device to see if it is alive. check this links: https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware/blob/master/docs/uart http://wikidevi.com/wiki/AR9271 > thanks, > izhar :) > > > _______________________________________________ > ath9k-devel mailing list > ath9k-devel@lists.ath9k.org > https://lists.ath9k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath9k-devel > -- Regards, Oleksij _______________________________________________ ath9k-devel mailing list ath9k-devel@lists.ath9k.org https://lists.ath9k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath9k-devel
