I have a question regarding the zd1211rw firmware. Is it supposed to be included within the latest stock kernel (I'm using latest kernel development version of Fedora Core 6 - soon to be release - 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6-xen) or does it require user/distribution download and installation to make it functional. I'm assuming that the firmware is also a re-write and licensed under GPL; therefore, permitted to be included with the kernel. If NOT, then that should clearly answer my question that it could NOT be included.
By the way, I'm stress testing the latest zd1211rw included in the kernel (2.6.18-1.2798.fc6-xen) with firmware snapshot dated 10-19-06 downloaded from http://www.deine-taler.de . So far so good, but very slow, maximum rate 1.1MB/sec (8.8Mbit/sec), where it should at least approach half max speed of 802.11g (54Mbit/sec). Network setup: 3 clients (Airlink+AWLLL3025 - zd1211 chipset = ID: 0ace:1211) - connected to USB 2.0 at 802.11g - each running rsync to download 10GB+ of source tree from a wireless router rated at 802.11g - encryption: WPA-PSK - rate setup 54MBit/sec - distance from AP ~ 2 feet Thanks to Daniel, Ulrich, et al for job well done! eric ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
