[MLB-WIRELESS] wsb dongle ext antenna

[Dan Flett]

After a little googling I think that this USB dongle uses the ZyDAS ZD1211
chipset.  There is an Open Source Linux driver project for it here:

http://zd1211.ath.cx/ 

This driver seems to have been included into the OpenWRT Kamikaze snapshots
for broadcom routers using a 2.6 Linux kernel here:

http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/brcm-2.6/packages/

Do a search for zd1211 on the page to find the two packages you need to test
it.

I would like to see a performance test for this dongle to see how good it's
radio really is.

Cheers

Dan
