Hi

I want to run ieee80211.s on an embedded box with madwifi drivers. I
wanted to ask if it is possible to integrate mac80211 with madwifi. I
see that ath5k and ath9k evolved out of madwifi and have support for
mac80211.

Could somebody also tell me why the recent releases of madwifi are not
inclined to support ieee802.11s?

I would also like to know a bit more about dadwifi. Is development
still in progress?

regards
Abhijeet

Hi all

Does anybody have something to say on this? I really need to get
started with this.

regards
Abhijeet

use ath5k! :)

- madwifi is not actively developed any more.
- dadwifi was an intermediary step in development, long since dead and 
superseded by ath5k.
- ath5k works fine for most recent chipsets.
- it's much easier to fix the remaining problems with ath5k than to deal with 
the messy code in madwifi.

sorry, but i really don't see why anyone would still want to do any serious 
development with anything else than ath5k... ;)

Hi Bruno

As illogical as it might sound the driver I have to use is madwifi. Should I
assume that no such development is in progress in open source?

i don't know what other people are working on, but i think it's safe to assume 
that.

good luck!
