TP-Link TL-WN821N
From NDISWrapper
TP-Link TL-WN821N
- Chipset: Atheros
- usbid: 0cf3:1002 or 0CF3:7015? (this version reported to work)
Info
Not working, tried with driver arusb_xp.inf from CD. Everything went smoothly in the ndis install, but the device doesn't show up with iwconfig.
UPDATE
I've used Driver from CD ( TL-WN821N/Windows XP 64bit/netathuwx.inf ) and it works however the usbid of this device is (0CF3:7015)
# ndiswrapper -l netathuwx : driver installed device (0CF3:7015) present # ifconfig -a (no wlan0 present) # ndiswrapper -v utils version: '1.9', utils version needed by module: '1.9' module details: filename: /lib/modules/2.6.27.56-0.1-default/misc/ndiswrapper.ko version: 1.56 vermagic: 2.6.27.56-0.1-default SMP mod_unload modversions
