[PATCH] add support for Dell WLA3310 USB card

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

 



Hi,

The Dell WLA3310 USB wireless card has a Z-Com XG-705A chipset that p54 supports with this patch.  You also have to get the firmware from
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54 
download 2.13.24.0.lm87.arm (USB 2nd generation (ISL3887)), rename it to
isl3887usb and put it in /lib/firmware.

The only problem I see is the LED light goes on when I plug the card in and it goes out when I get a dhcp address (dhclient).  The LED doesn't flicker when I ping the router either.  The other funny thing it has two LEDs, one on top and one on the bottom.  It appears they do the same thing i.e. they are both on or both off.

Please consider applying for 2.6.35 and stable depending on if you can distribute the firmware.  If you need anything else please let me know.

Thanks,
Jason Dravet
