Re: [Gnewsense-dev] Re: wifi on the lemote

[Elly Liu]

Thanks Daniel!

Sometimes the wifi connection is ok and sometimes not - depending on the place we're using it. We're can connect in one coffee bar (speed pretty good, sigal strength fine), and can't connect to my office wifi, can't connect in another coffee bar. 
One of our testers here will report another try soon. I'm getting someone to check my Wifi router wtihin days. FYI. Anything new, keep in touch!

Cheers!

Elly

It should just work on the yeeloong with a 2.6.27+ linux with support
for RTL8187 / RTL8187b enabled - also Lemote has a possibly better
driver that's pointed to from some thread on the debian-mips list.

Also FYI it's on the USB bus, not the PCI bus. And it does have some
issues (again, see debian-mips list via gmane or whatever).
