It says "No" in the master column.

I usually stick some product codes into froogle and find several results.

The first link you pasted states that there are not 2, but 3 drivers. 
All of them are unmaintained and various degrees of broken except 
zd1211rw which is clean and actively developed (but lacks some lesser 
common features at current point in time).

zd1211rw: yes, and yes. The driver is actively developed -- if you do 
find problems you'll have 2 active developers reading the reports at the 
very least.

Bear in mind that zd1211rw does not support master mode or ad-hoc mode 
(i.e. cannot host a network without an AP). For simple "AP client" 
(managed) mode it works very well.

I believe they have been tested. This stuff is all handled outside the 
driver.

[zd1211-devs] usb wpa_supplicant wpa2 peap on an arm processor

2007-05-28 Thread Jeff Sadowski
I think I may be asking for too much :-P

Ok I have a gumstix wich uses an arm processor I was looking for a usb
wireless card that supports wpa_supplicant.

I'm hopeful that with this zd1211 driver I will get my wish :-)

I plan on connecting to a wpa2 peap with mschapv2 network
I currently use madwifi drivers on my laptop but am looking for
something to use with
my gumstix.

This driver will work on an ARM processor correct?

This driver works with wpa_supplicant right?

I'm guessing no one has tested wpa2 or peap authentication
If not I'll gladly let you all know how it works.

Thanks
