Wireless,Atheros AR5008-based PCI adapter,mode 11n
Hi All, Recently I've got 802.11b/g adapter TL-WN353GD from TP-Link, based on Atheros AR5008 chip.It's a 802.11n NIC. I can make it work in mode 11g in stead of 11n with the FreeBSD 8.0 current. So,I have a question that whether there is support for 802.11n in FreeBSD 8.0 current yet. And if It support 802.11n, how can I config the parameters to make it work in mode 11n. Thanks, -- Kevi ___ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Seems that there is no support for it in FreeBSD yet, but there are some mentionings about 8185 in /sys/dev/usb/wlan/if_urtw*. Also, Realtek has a Linux driver for it, and this driver is partly based on NetBSD's if_rtw driver for RTL8180 (which seems to be 802.11a/b predecessor of 8185). So, I'm wondering - does someone work already on a driver for this chip, or maybe I should try to write a driver myself? As far as I know, there's no one to work on it. regards, Weongyo Jeong ___ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Thanks, You can trivially turn on 802.11n RX by enabling HT capabilities in the driver (that'll give you 11n downlink transfers w/ AMPDU even). That's worked ever since I brought 11n support code into the tree (18 months ago?). 11n transmit requires an 11n-aware rate control algorithm and as far as I know noone is working on that.
