Atheros WiFi: devnp-ath

kend · December 3, 2007, 2:49am

Greetings,

I have a system with the Atheros AR5212 WiFi chipset. Â I found instructions on
how to use this with io-pkt-v?-hc and some source in the network tree under
trunk/sys/contib, along with a ref in sys/static_drvr_netbsd.mk but have not
figured out how to build devnp-ath.

Can some kind soul help me out?

Thanks a bunch,

I can’t help much, but here is what I can tell you.

go into trunk/sys/dev/ath and remove Makefile.dnm
install uudecode on your system

Hope this helps…

Thanks much, but I have uudecode and no Makefile exists in trunk/sys/dev/ath.

Perhaps there is some other code I need to get? [I followed the public instructions to get the networking source. I have a non-commercial licence].

Thanks much,

Ah! I was looking in sys/contrib/dev/ath

Builds AOK! Hey, I am reponding on QNX rather than having to reboot Linux.

Thanks again,

How can I access wifi on my Blackberry 8900 with a password protected router? I want to access our password protected wifi with my Blackberry 8900 but when I try to connect my phone says that I need to enter a pin into our wireless router. How can I do that?
