Just to clarify things, he had plans to sell N8 and buy next N900 - but, lately, he received N950. This is only for clarification - I really, *really* don't attack laasonen.

Ps.

It's probably mainly our fault than none of us have skill (or those having it, are over-projected ATM) that we can't continue this great project. Complaining now is like complaining if laasonen was ever hit by a bus or whatever. Time to move a.s.s and try to learn some python, I guess.

I finally got to promote it to extras. Thank you for testing :)

Just wanted to say this finally let me use the power kernel while connecting to DD-WRT APs at the same time! :D

sorry, but could you elaborate more on this? I don't get how applet to switch between stock/bleeding-edge drivers may fix any problem with connecting to dd-wrt AP. Seems quite unrelated.

There's a bug with kernel-power that prevents the N900 from seeing DD-WRT APs, but with the bleeding-edge drivers the APs show up again:

Your switching applet gave me a quick, convenient and failsafe way to switch between drivers.

I haven't touched the code for half of an year, but I remember that it checks the folder for the drivers when you select it. And if you remove the drivers from the folder afterwards, it asks for the new location automatically next time.

What works and what doesn't?
  • Loading stock-drivers
  • Loading bleedingedge-drivers
  • Disabling wlan

This applet is no longer developed. Use Advanced Interface Switcher instead (and Cleven or fAircrack for hassle-free injection enabling + aircrack frontend).

@laasonen,
is there any possibility that the state of the wlan (disabled or enabled) remains the same even after reboot?
At the moment, after every reboot it goes to enabled state.

It would be great if it stays at the last state it was before rebooted/ shutdown? if it can be done using a simple mod, please post it, if u dont want the applet to be updated.

Thanks for the wonderful applet. significant difference matey!
