I am so pleased at getting this working :-)
Previous attempts at getting the atmelwlandriver working with the 2.4.18 kernel were
unsuccesful due I now realise to a kernel bug.
But with the latest WISP-2469 I was able to compile the usbvnetr ver 2.1.1 driver from
http://atmelwlandriver.sourceforge.net/ against a stock 2.4.20 kernel, then just
copied the Atmel driver to my WISP platform together with the uhci driver ( usb-uhci
does not work with Atmel)
Then my Linksys WUSB11 ver2.6 wireless adapter was immediately recognised as eth3 on
loading the driver (The Belkin USB adapter also works)
The only modification I had to make to the WISP code was a little modification to
/etc/network/wireless-start to allow the adapter to be configured correctly
echo "0" > /proc/driver/aironet/$IFACE_ORIG/WepKey
fi
#Hack to make atmel work
log iwconfig $IFACE key `eval echo \$"$IFACE"_KEY` [1]
fi
And also here:-
[ "`eval echo \$\"$IFACE\"_NICK`" ] &&
log iwconfig $IFACE nick \"`eval echo \$"$IFACE"_NICK`\"
#More hack for Atmel
[ `eval echo \$"$IFACE"_KEY` ] &&
log iwconfig $IFACE enc on
One problem I have found to date is that the Atmel driver is very 'wordy' and fills up
the log rapidly. I shall try to recompile it without all the messages.
