ChangeLog for Host AP driver for Intersil Prism2
2002-04-21
* added support for Prism2.5-based native PCI cards and PC Cards
in PLX9052-base PCI adapters
- new module names (to avoid duplicates with linux-wlan-ng):
PC Card version: hostap_cs.o
PCI version for Prism2.5: hostap_pci.o
PLX version: hostap_plx.o
- please note, that /etc/pcmcia/prism2.conf is renamed to
hostap_cs.conf and you may need to manually remove old
prism2.conf
from /etc/pcmcia
* fixed BAP setup problems (BAP0 and BAP1 cannot apparently be setup
correctly, even though they can be used concurrently for
reading/writing)
- this removes at least some corruption problems (e.g., "no SNAP?"
messages)
- this fixes some card hangs (which would usually cause
"hfa384x_setup_bap - timeout3" messages)
* re-organized driver source code (see driver_source.txt for
details)
* do not allow "Any" (i.e., zero-len) SSID to be set when in Host AP
mode (this seems to kill the card)
* fixed byte order bugs in SIOCSIWMODE, SIOCSIWFREQ, and SIOCSIWRATE
handlers (affecting big endian platforms)
* fixed WEP configuration to return valid configuration after card
reset
