Sorry to reply to my own post - nobody seems to find my post interesting?

You must be new - I sent a patch to zd1211-devs about two weeks ago
against vendor driver 2.22 to make it work for kernel 2.6.25.
I have been using that for two weeks in master mode now.
I found that the driver/hardware seems to require a

The vendor driver is, as it says, provided by the vendor and the authoritative

May I ask where did you get the 3.0.0.56 driver? I heard of the rumour of an

materialized yet. I'll be interested to have a look.
The rumour was from an Atheros guy (Atheros bought Zydas) on the linux-wireless

also make sure NetworkManager/wpa_supplicant are down, as they interfere with

Hmm, there are anecdotal evidence that pid works better than minstrel for
mac80211-based drivers when the AP is a bit weak. Minstrel is the default from
2.6.30(31?) onwards, but you can choose pid with a module parameter in
modprobe.conf - see if that helps. The details are in two bug reports on
Hmm, the default(?) is 1500 - MTU=500 is way too low for normal usage.
since zd1211rw is also a mac80211 driver, can you give the pid modprobe.conf a
try to see if it helps? See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14168

Hmm, unfortunately yes - you can build both in to have it runtime switch-able,
but you have to have both in before that can happen.(mintrel is the default).

Hmm, what's the hardware (the zd1211rw: ... line in your dmesg, you can
probably just grep zd1211 /var/log/message for it as well) may be all the same.
There are quite a few variants.
I don't know if putting compat-wireless on will help, but you could give that a
try. FWIW, the driver developme
Have you tried using compat-wireless? That would give you the latest zd1211rw
code against an older kernel. (compat-wireless is equivalent to the
kernel-module-backport package on ubuntu, I think).

I suspect it is just poor hardware. The more power-drawing devices you have
got, the current/power available to each can drop, and some devices are more
sensitive to drop in voltage than others. That seems to be the obvious
conclusion - the more bus-powered devices plugged in, the more likely th
Error -110 is USB timeout. it is just an indication that the device is not
responding - not enough power from the motherboard and is a hardware rather
than a software problem, is probably my guess, given recent problem reports.

There are two things you can try -

the signal strength is low. I don't remember when the switch for the default

Overriding bitrate is probably not advisable - why do you do that. (also,

By default, the bitrate is set to 1Mb/s *when you are not using your
connection*. It should shift up

Hi,
I added patch 13 and 14 to
http://htl10.users.sourceforge.net/patchsets/LinuxUSB_AR2524-3.0.0.56/
which allows the zd1211 vendor driver to build against recent kernel - in my
case, 2.6.35.10 .
I use it mainly for the AP mode, on an old machine that has just been
resurrected after over a yea

Perhaps I should say the patch looks incomplete, because I have seen the
"official" change I mentioned below, and it is more than just two lines.

0x0ACE 0x1215 should bind to the zd1211b kernel module (the vendor driver
builds two kernel modules, zd1211 and zd1211b). That said, compat-wireless is
probably the way to go...

The message seems quite clear - missing firmware. Some *cough* zealous *cough*
distros ship kernels stripped of binary blobs crucial to the functionality of a
device, because it does not fit their ideology of software freedom. Download
and install a proper kernel, with all the necessary bits.
