Re: mac80211 support for RTL chipset

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

 



I was able to get RTL8188CUS chipset to work with the rtl8192cu driver
in AP mode.
It is responding to Probe Requests, however Beacons are not being

Could you help in debugging this.

thanks,
