Hello all, Back in May 2011, I wrote a driver for VLANs (swconfig) for the ADM6996M switch chip. It turned out that the ADM6996FC chip has the exact same identification number. It is also quite similar in operation (the M is more advanced). I didn't have an FC chip myself, and I didn't have a datasheet either. A slightly modified version of my driver did appear to work, according one of the people who helped me figure out how to differentiate an M model from an FC model. I posted the modification to the mailing list, but I didn't ask for it to be applied to OpenWRT trunk. I had no way to verify for myself that everything worked as it should, so I did not want to sign off on it.
Currently, I was thinking that perhaps I'd like to implement priority queues for the M model: there is now a VoIP line running over that switch. This sparked my interest again, and I decided to do something else as well. I just bought a cheap second hand Fritz!Box Fon WLAN 7170. I intend to thoroughly test if the FC chip in that box does what I expect it to do, and then submit the patch that enables support for the FC chip in the driver. And now I come to the request part and the reason I wrote this mail. I've been searching for that blasted datasheet for the FC model again. And frustratingly, it has actually been seen in the wild, at: <http://www.infineon.convergy.de/upload/documents/techdoc/GF_15/Samurai_6FC_FCX_FHX_VAD_DS_Rev1.4.pdf> Even more frustratingly, the Internet Archive has actually archived that directory, but alas, it misses that file: <http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/http://www.infineon.convergy.de/upload/documents/techdoc/GF_15/*> That, right there, is really mean! Does anybody here have that PDF? I could really use it! And I should note that Infineon/ADMtek has sold a number of chips with ADM6996 in the name, and they differ greatly. While the FC model might be advertised as a lower-power alternative for the F chip, they are not comparable from a driver point of view. The L chip is similar to the F chip (so also not useful). Interestingly, that I/IX model that is listed by the Internet Archive /is/ quite similar to the M and FC models. I hope someone can help me out!
