Try asking in lin...@vg.... I think only iwl4965 and b43 attempt to support 802.11n, of which only iwl4965 is functional. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin |

Pavel, One guy in linux-wireless list uses iwl4965 is for Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN. He tested version 1.1.17 of the driver successfully connecting to a Atheros-based 11n access point by D-Link and reached about 80 MBit/s UDP netto. It looks Atheros has 802.11n driver for its 802.11n chip. Does Atheros contribute open source for madwifi? For my last project, we bought atheros chips and used madwifi. Atheros does not provide linux driver for 802.11 a/b/g to us. Instead Atheros provide VxWorks and window source codes for 802.11 a/b/g. ---henry --- Pavel Roskin <pr...@gn...> wrote: > > On Thu, 2008-01-24 at 14:38 -0800, hong zhang wrote: > > List, > > > > Could any one please tell me if madwifi support > > 802.11n yet? > > No, it doesn't. > > > We are seeking 802.11n working driver. > > Try asking in lin...@vg....

I have no doubt about it. The would not market their products as draft 802.11n if they didn't have working drivers at least for some OS. But I don't know what those D-Link routers are running. > Does Atheros contribute open source for madwifi? I'm not aware of it. So far, all their contributions are not free software. Chances are, they might answer some questions about the chipset that would help develop a free replacement for madwifi. > For my last project, we bought atheros chips and used > madwifi.

And that's probably what they do for 802.11n. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin |
