Hi,

last time, I tested 3com pci card (atheros) and now testing zd1211b.
the general product name is AG-760A.(usb dongle)
(only for using 802.11a ad-hoc)

I took a look at the source : zd_mac.c , zd_usb.c, etc...
In these files, I could see the "/* FIXME for 802.11a*/ comment block. so,
I changed 2GHZ to 5GHZ and 24GHZ to 52GHZ etc..(also with productid)

It's not quite as easy as that. In order to support 802.11a you need to add the AL7230B RF programming code from the vendor driver, with mac80211 semantics added. That's not a simple task either, but if you want to give it a go, you can download the vendor driver from http://zd1211.wiki.sourceforge.net/VendorDriver

You also need a AL7230B-based ZD1211B device, which I'm assuming you have. Other RFs don't do 802.11a
