Hi all, During 2011, we started developing a FreeBSD driver for the * Intel(R) Centrino(R) Advanced-N 6205 * Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 100 * Intel(R) Centrino(R) Ultimate-N 6300 devices. This fell wayside, and wasn't really completed (e.g. rate scaling, thermal throttling) but here we are releasing the code anyway. I'm not very hopeful that the driver is useful as is, but maybe some interested parties can salvage useful pieces from it and integrate them into iwn. I'm sure there are a ton of hacks in this. The attached tar archive contains the sources. I don't know much about the FreeBSD build system, other than that it actually compiled out of tree. I'm not including the firmware, you can get those from the web and uuencode them into the right places etc. In personal capacity, I'm willing to help out with the device programming as much as time permits, if anyone wants to port this into iwn or add the missing features (rate scaling would be very useful I guess.) johannes -- Intel GmbH Dornacher Strasse 1 85622 Feldkirchen/Muenchen, Deutschland Sitz der Gesellschaft: Feldkirchen bei Muenchen Geschaeftsfuehrer: Christian Lamprechter, Hannes Schwaderer, Douglas Lusk Registergericht: Muenchen HRB 47456 Ust.-IdNr./VAT Registration No.: DE129385895 Citibank Frankfurt a.M.
