. Alternative driver for the Atmel AT76C503A based USB WLAN adapters. This driver is for linux kernel versions 2.4.X. . Currently, the driver has some limitations: * no promiscous, monitor or station mode and no support for libpcap, i.e. it does not work with Kismet or Airsnort and it cannot act as an WLAN access point. This is a restriction imposed by the current firmware. * The firmware for Intersil radios is old (Atmel doesn't update it anymore) and has more restrictions. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: powerpc Kernel: Linux bogon 2.4.23-pre5-ben0-bogon #1 Mon Nov 17 15:45:41 CET 2003 ppc Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
