Hi, This might be a slightly offtopic question - I have a bunch of Sierra Wireless AirCard 555 driver/firmware files, and I am unable to figure out which is the correct .inf file, or which are the remaining firmware files. I could only recognize the driver, which had a .sys extension. These files are: Air555.sys, mdmac555.cat, mfac555.cat, netac555.inf, MFAC555.INF, mdmac555.inf, netac555.cat. None of the .inf files give a clue as to which one really belongs to the .sys file. Hence, I tried building the ko, using ndisgen utility, by specifying .sys as the driver, and netac555.inf as the corresponding .inf files. Then I specified all the remaining files as additional firmware files. ndisgen happily built the kernel object, and I was able to insert it too... ...but....no device appeared, no nothing in the syslog too! This leaves me wondering if I specified the incorrect files... Does anyone have an idea as to which will be the correct .inf file, and which are the firmware files? I'd appreciate help here, I can also send these file offlist for inspection. Thanks in advance! Best, Amarendra
