Hi Devs,
I hope someone can shed some light on why I am seeing these errors.
When using the standard zd1211rw, mac802111 & cfg80211 drivers that come with
fedora 14 (2.6.35.13-91) i am able to run my zd1211-based device perfectly
without a glitch over a 10m UTP usb extension. I can even run airodump-ng for
days on end without a glitch (of course no packet injection or signal level
feedback).
However when I try to use the compat-wireless-2011-05-26 or
compat-wireless-2011-04-22 drivers I receive firmware timeout errors. Please
see /var/log/message output below:

I know I am pushing usb to its limits using a 10 meter UTP cable, but I'm still
curious as to why one driver works fine, and another driver fails?
Thanks for any help/tips/ideas etc.

Rohan.
