[PATCH 7/7] ath5k: Warn on partially supported chips

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

 



 *Warn on partially supported chips (eg. 5414/5424)

These chips need work on PHY part, recently Reyk posted
a workaround so that they can work on 2GHz but i believe
that the problem is related to PHY initialization. Plz
we need help with these...

I did some tests on a 5414 at 5GHz and it seemed to work
but i didn't test it at 2GHz.

I'll try to find one of these and play with.
