Re: [zd1211-devs] firmware timeout issues (error -110)

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hello,

Have you tried without the cable?

Can you compile compat-wireless with CONFIG_ZD1211RW_DEBUG=y enabled,  
for more output from driver?
(edit compat-wireless-[version]/config.mk, take out "# " from line  
with "CONFIG_ZD1211RW_DEBUG=y" and recompile)
