The .c file for my particular driver says: * This driver contains code specific to Atmel AT76C505A (USB wireless 802.11) * devices which use radio chips from RF Micro Devices (RFMD). Almost * all of the actual driver is handled by the generic at76c503.c module, this * file just registers for the USB ids and passes the correct firmware to * at76c503. Since I have a 505 I seem to be a happy camper! :) It _was_ very hard to find a device like this, I returned about 3 cards before finding one that seems to be fully Free.
