<TITLE>Prism2 Host AP Linux Driver Updated</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>For those who use this driver. It was updated last night.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2><A HREF="http://people.ssh.com/jkm/Prism2/" TARGET="_blank">http://people.ssh.com/jkm/Prism2/</A></FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>ChangeLog for Host AP driver for Intersil Prism2</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>2002-04-21</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>* added support for Prism2.5-based native PCI cards and PC Cards</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> in PLX9052-base PCI adapters</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> - new module names (to avoid duplicates with linux-wlan-ng):</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> PC Card version: hostap_cs.o</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> PCI version for Prism2.5: hostap_pci.o</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> PLX version: hostap_plx.o</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> - please note, that /etc/pcmcia/prism2.conf is renamed to</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> hostap_cs.conf and you may need to manually remove old prism2.conf</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> from /etc/pcmcia</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>* fixed BAP setup problems (BAP0 and BAP1 cannot apparently be setup</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> correctly, even though they can be used concurrently for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> reading/writing)</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> - this removes at least some corruption problems (e.g., "no SNAP?"</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> messages)</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> - this fixes some card hangs (which would usually cause</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> "hfa384x_setup_bap - timeout3" messages)</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>* re-organized driver source code (see driver_source.txt for details)</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>* do not allow "Any" (i.e., zero-len) SSID to be set when in Host AP</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> mode (this seems to kill the card)</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>* fixed byte order bugs in SIOCSIWMODE, SIOCSIWFREQ, and SIOCSIWRATE</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> handlers (affecting big endian platforms)</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>* fixed WEP configuration to return valid configuration after card</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> reset</FONT>
</P>
