*Oggetto:* RTL8187 driver in linux 3.4
Hi, I write to you because I found you are the maintainers of the driver in subject.
Hi, I’m working with a USB device using chipset RTL8187 connected to a mips
router with Openwrt.
With the old driver r8187l.ko in linux 2.4.x it works fine.
With the RTL8187 driver, if the signal is not good enough, it can establish a
connection, but it doesn’t transfer datas (no ping for example).
I think it is a bug of the driver, so I would like to know if you know this bug
and if you have planned to solve it…
There is any change planned on this driver?
I hope for a generous answer and I’m sorry for my bad English.
The address looks OK to me. I do not know why it bounced.
My involvement with the RTL8187 devices only started with 2.6.X, where X is 25
or 26. I have no knowledge of the driver in kernel 2.4.
There have been various complaints about the driver, particularly on RTL8187L
hardware, that concern rate setting using the minstrel algorithm. I have been
unable to reproduce the results.
Please answer the following questions;
Does the device work is you lock the rate at 1 Mbps?
What is the USB ID as shown by lsusb?
Does it work when you use the PID rate-setting algorithm? To enable this, you
will need to set CONFIG_EXPERT=y.

Does it work better if you choose
