Hello,
I know use revision 71 of the ZD1211B driver for my Fiberline WL-430U dongle.
When I plug the dongle into the USB socket, the kernel outputs among others
the following lines:
zd1211: AllowedChannel = 000007ff
zd1211: LinkLEDn = 200
AllowedChannel = 000107ff
Region: 48
Why are the two AllowedChannel entries different? Why are there only 11 or 12
bits set although I'm in Europe where there are 13 channels usable? Or is
this number not a bit pattern with each bit corresponds to a single channel?
What does “Region: 48” mean? Is 48 intended to be a region code? That would
be nonsense.
I issued a iwpriv wlan0 get_Region after having entered ifconfig wlan0 up.
This showed me a region code of 2 (Europe/Taiwan) which is acutally correct.
Nevertheless I set the region code to 2 via iwpriv wlan0 set_Region 2. After
ifconfig wlan0 down, and unplugging and replugging the dongle, the kernel
still output the above lines.
Is there anything wrong with my setup or does the problem lie at a different
point?
Best wishes,
Wolfgang
