Hi ,

where did you find the code support RT8185 on iMX53 WEC7.0?

As I know, Freescale only support Atheros WIFI card on WinCE.

Hi Wang,

Are you using the Sabrelite BSP from 3rd party?

In my side, I only see Atheros AR6102(SDIO) Driver for Wifi.

If your BSP already support RT8185, you need check if it released with source or binary.

If there are source code in it, you can do some changes to support RT8188.

If not, I think you need ask the BSP provider.

Hi, Jiang,

     My BSP is from 3rd party, But this part is from MS in public and there are cource code in it.

     I don't known how many difference between RT8185 and RT8188, The RT8188 provider saied they support wince5&6, but not 7, it's means that they have no driver with WEC7. Maybe RT8188 can work well with WEC7 directly.

     Thanks Jiang~

Hi Wangyx,

The WIFI lower level driver should be provided by Realtek. MSFT only provide the high level driver.

But as the driver doesn't have big difference between CE6 and CE7. So I think the driver can also be used on WEC7.

Hi, Jiang,

     Maybe you are right, I will test for that.

     I setup the RT8188 driver which can work well on CE6, My device can find the WIFI, Maybe has linked, But can't work well, My device can't surf on the internet. I will try and discuss the problem with RT8188 FAE.

     Thx, Jiang~ If there are other question, then i will consult with you~
