Re: Alfa AWUS036NHR with RTL8188RU chipset

Hello,

I also have the AWUS036NHR device and I got it working on Ubuntu 11.04
2.6.38-11-generic x64. The only thing I did is to compile&install
compat-wireless-2.6.39-1 (same as beini!) which can be found here:
http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-2.6-stable/v2.6.39/

There was only one strange thing: In drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu/sw.c
there is no entry for the AWUS036NHR so that no driver is loaded when I plugged
the USB in, but in older versions of compat-wireless (e.g. 2.6.38) there IS one
entry for this device. The entry looks like this:

/* 8188RU in Alfa AWUS036NHR */
{RTL_USB_DEVICE(USB_VENDER_ID_REALTEK, 0x817f, rtl92cu_hal_cfg)}

So I patched the file, compiled&installed it and everything worked! Could
someone patch the sources and add this device? Thanks!

Toddy
