Master mode in rtl8187

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

 



Hey all,

I recently purchased a Netgear WG111v2 (based on rtl8187b) and after
seeing scattered reports[1] that master mode may be supported by the
rtl8187 driver. Unfortunately, hostapd throws up when it attempts to put
the card into master mode. Is master mode supported by this driver? I've
tried both 2.6.34 as well as the latest wireless-testing tree and
neither seem to work.

I noticed there was a patch[2] sent out a few years back, but it seems
no one followed up. While I don't have much experience working with
wireless hardware I've done kernel driver work before, so with some
guidance I might be able to finish up that patch. Any input would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks!

- Ben
