AR5006 - should it work?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'm trying to use AR5006* mini-PCI cards with no success - should
I expect them to work with madwifi ath5k branch and/or
linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-dev.git ath5k branch on kernel.org?

AR5004X seems to work fine.

Don't work:
ENGENIUS EMP-8602(+) 400 mW a/b/g AR5413 rev 1.0 and 1.1
AR5006X PCI ID 168c:001b 168c:2063

SparkLAN WMIA-166AG a/b/g AR5414A
AR5006XS PCI ID 168c:001b 17f9:000d

Testing with:
# modprobe ath5k
# ifconfig wlan0 up
# iwlist wlan0 scan

wlan0     No scan results


madwifi.org ath5k dmesg (with 2.6.22 kernel, EMP-8602):
ath5k: MAC revision: 5413  (0xa4)
ath5k: PHY revision: SChip (0x63)
ath5k: EEPROM version: 5.2
wmaster0: Selected rate control algorithm 'simple'

John's git repository (2.6.23-current, EMP-8602):
wmaster0: Selected rate control algorithm 'simple'
ath_pci 0000:00:0d.0: AR5212 chip found: mac 10.10 phy 6.1

This is ARM-based system (Intel IXP425) but just tried with
AMD64 (madwifi ath5k only) - results are the same.


AR5004X based card shows few devices in the neighbourhood, max
signal ~ 20/127.

Any ideas?
