Thanks for the info. Then I'll try to fix it by myself and isolate the error by comparing the driver behavior on the PC and my router. I hope I can provide a patch for that afterwards. Are there any hints where I might look first. Since it only works for very few transponders I suppose the error in the frontend.... or not?
