Re: [zd1211-devs] wusbf54g support
I got my new Linksys WUSBF54G stick with wifi-finder to work, following
the suggestions in this thread. Let me summarize:
1. Downloaded the driver from subversion:
svn co http://zd1211.ath.cx/repos/trunk zd1211-driver-svn
2. Edited the src/zdusb,
added this line to the #ifdef ZD1211B section (line 83):
{USB_DEVICE(0x13b1, 0x0024)},
3. Edited Makefile,line 22 to read:
ZD1211REV_B=1
Follow the instructions on the wiki.
So I hope someone can add this device to the source.

[zd1211-devs] zd1211rw problems, bit rate, icwonfig
I am trying to get my Linksys USB Network Adapter with Wi-Fi finder
Linksys WUSBF54G 13b1:0024 to work with zd1211rw. Previously I've had
success version getting it to work with the old zd1211 driver.
I'm running Ubuntu feisty, which has kernel 2.6.19-7.
zd1211rw is snapshot 2006-12-14, with an edited zd_usb.c with a new
{USB_DEVICE(0x13b1, 0x0024), .driver_info = DEVICE_ZD1211B}
I seem to get the usb adapter recognized, but the Bit Rate is only 1
Mb/s and I can't get an dhcp offer. I tried to set another bit rate with
iwconfig (sudo iwconfig eth1 rate 11M), but it doesn't change. The
output of iwconfig looks the same next time.
Any ideas how I can get further or what I'm doing wrong?

What distribution are you using?
It's ubuntu, recently upgraded to feisty to get kernel 2.6.19-7
Some of the configuration methods you mentioned are unfamiliar to me.
To me to. I usually do what Googling tells me. There seems to be many
ways to configure the kernel modules in ubuntu, most of debian
heritage.
I use wpa_supplicant for mine, and am able to associate with WEP and
WPA2/tkip/PEAP networks without hassle.
I'll try this

Thanks,
it works now!
I had to set the essid with sudo iwconfig set essid
MyWlanName.
Then do a sudo dhclient to get a dhcp connection.
Perhaps not surprising, but:
Previously this was made automatically by a configuration
option
wireless-essid in /etc/network/interfaces, but it doesn't seem
to have
an effect with the zd1211rw driver. Also I have specified
iface eth1 inet dhcp, but that doesn't seem to do it.
Also I have problems with starting the driver automatically at
startup.
I've put zd1211rw last in /etc/modules. I have to unplug the
usb stick
before rebooting, and plug it in again after Linux has loaded,
else it
fails: USB control request for firmware upload failed. Error
number
-110. I suspect this has to do with zd1211rw being loaded too
early in
the process, but I don't know to fix it. What is the proper
way to load
the modules, is /etc/modules the right thing?
But the driver seems to work fine!
Don't know how formal tests are required, but I suggest adding
{USB_DEVICE(0x13b1, 0x0024), .driver_info = DEVICE_ZD1211B}
to zd_usb.c

Mine does this when it has not associated properly with the
AP.
Notice that the output if 'iwconfig' says Access Point:
Invalid.
Are you using encryption on your AP? I find that 'iwconfig
eth1 enc
open' usually fixes the problem. Failing that, make sure it
is using
the correct key.

I suspect this has to do with zd1211rw being loaded too early in the process, but I don't know to fix it. What is the proper way to load the modules, is /etc/modules the right thing? No, usually the driver modules for usb are supposed to be loaded by the appropriate udev rules. And this should work at boot time too, i.e. no need to unplug the usb dongle. This doesn't work for me. The log says that some usb device is plugged-in, but the zd1211rw driver isn't loaded. I would suggest to try the wpasupplicant package. I use an open network, so I don't think I need wpasupplicant. For Debian and Ubuntu the appropriate support has been added to the ifupdown scripts. You have to configure your wlan gateway to do wpa-psk, though. My entry for wlan in /etc/network/interfaces looks like this: allow-hotplug eth2 iface eth2 inet static wpa-driver wext wpa-ssid mynet wpa-psk my_precious_wpa_passphrase address 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.1 I use dhcp on an open network, and the usb stick is eth1, so I tried allow-hotplug eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp wpa-driver wext wireless-essid MyOpenNetwork it almost worked, I got a connection but no dhcp ip. I don't use my laptop that much, so I can live with my current setup that works. Plugging in the usb stick after reboots, and this little wlan.sh script for connecting. #!/bin/sh sudo iwconfig eth1 essid MyOpenNetwork dhclient I have not tried downgrading the firmware yet.
