Hello Folks,
I just saw the announcement for RHEL 6.4
"kmod-compat-wireless does not support RHEL 6.4. Red Hat backported
the wireless stack from kernel-3.5 in RHEL6.4 so users of 6.4 should
uninstall kmod-compat-wireless and try the native wireless drivers in
the distro kernel."
I am using this USB " NetGear, Inc. WNA1100 Wireless-N 150 [Atheros
AR9271]" that seems to be recognized by Centos6.4 but it doesn't
create a wlan0 interface.
My entire point is to create an AP with hostapd. If I install 6.3 will
i be able to install kmod-compat-wireless and then install hostapd?
Thanks,
Frank
Hi Frank,
You want the ath9k_htc driver for the Atheros AR9271
Please try installing kmod-ath9k_htc and the corresponding firmware
package ath9k_htc-firmware from the el6 elrepo repository:
yum install kmod-ath9k_htc ath9k_htc-firmware
and let us know how you get on. I'd expect the device to be detected in
NetworkManager after a reboot.
Hope that helps,
Phil
