Hi Marc, > Does the Ralink driver work with the 802.11a chipset (rt2561), such as > the Sparklan WMIR-168AG? The code looks only b/g.
The rtnet ralink driver works only for the rt2500 pci chipset, which supports 802.11b/g. The driver has been ported from rt2x00-2.0.0-b3 (see http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/rt2400/). The current non real time rt2x00 drivers also support the newer rt2561 chipset. As far as i know the rt2561 uses extra firmware, so there could be some major differences. > I would be interested in hearing any comments on how well the Ralink > driver works.

There has been some basic testing of the rtnet ralink driver. The implemented features (look at the README) work fine. An experimental use of the rtnet tdma over wlan was also possible. The madwifi driver makes use of a binary HAL. So it is hard to say, if its possible to perform real time requirements with it.
