The rt2x00 driver works for some chipsets, but the rt2500usb doesn't seem to |
| 18 |
work at all. If you check the kernel config you may still see it marked as |
| 19 |
experimental. Better to use a CVS build (not in portage IIRC) of rt2570 and a |
| 20 |
current kernel than to try with rt2500usb at this time. That is what I am |
| 21 |
doing, with wpa using the iwpriv commands. |
