Hi all,
Have any one successfully use the USB WIFi dongle on i.MX53 QSB?
I've tried to compile the RT73 module and there is no reponse when the dongle is plugin.
Below is the kernel log:
<6>usb 1-1.3: new high speed USB device using fsl-ehci and address 4
<7>phy1: Selected rate control algorithm 'minstrel'
<7>Registered led device: rt73usb-phy1::radio
<7>Registered led device: rt73usb-phy1::assoc
<7>Registered led device: rt73usb-phy1::quality
If I plugin to PC, it should show:
[10016.461531] usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 13
[10122.520196] usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 14

[10124.302519] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan1: link is not ready
I'm wondering why I don't have the configuration debug message and hasn't asked for any firmware.
Hi Remi, the link you provided lands on a generic community page. Can you re-send a direct link which leads to usb-wifi dongles article?
Hi,
I think this article should be helpful: http://blog.linuxconsulting.ro/2010/04/porting-wifi-drivers-to-android.html
Make sure you read it while looking at the implementation of the Atheros Wifi driver that can be found in the BSP (also in the BSP of the SABRE tablet). I think this should give you enough pointers.
Also, for the USB WLAN, you will need to enable the corresponding drivers in the kernel configuration.
