Hello :-) I have just bought USB WiFi b/g/n dongle from TP-LINK model TL-WN822B Ver:2.0 [1] which use following chipsets: Atheros AR9002U-2NG, Atheros AR7010, Atheros AR9287. It looks nice bacuse it cost ~20EUR it has external antennas and has very good opinions. Now, I start to think that finding Ver:3.0 based on RTL8192CU [2] might be a better choice..? Still I consider Atheros to be a better solution than Realtek..? I have made simple modification of /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs and /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/wlan/if_uath.c to get it recognised, but uath driver seems to only support AR5005UG according to manpage. Is there any known driver to operate AR9002 chips? Here is what dmesg shows after my kernel modification/rebuild: ugen1.3: <ATHEROS> at usbus1 uath0: <ATHEROS USB WLAN, rev 2.00/2.02, addr 3> on usbus1 uath0: could not allocate USB transfers, err=USB_ERR_NO_PIPE device_attach: uath0 attach returned 12 So it looks this driver will not operate with this chipset..? Any hints appreciated! :-) Tomek [1] http://wikidevi.com/wiki/TP-LINK_TL-WN822N_v2 [2] http://wikidevi.com/wiki/TP-LINK_TL-WN822N_v3 -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
