I recommend bringing up a new VAP for RFMON and then testing injection.

I can confirm that it works great, I just successfully cracked my 2nd AP's WEP key with my N900 :)

If you have a bank account inside the EU, you can also send me donations using IBAN/BIC. Just contact me by PM for the details.

If you don't need monitor mode and packet injection, then you most likely won't get any additional benefits with this driver.

Like the answer above: Most likely not, the only difference that maybe could improve battery life is UAPSD support, but I really don't know if that makes any difference.

Hi lxp,

Do you have a plan for maintaining compatibility with the power-kernel? Are you planning to release your patched power-kernel each time one is released?

Do you think you'll submit your patches to the power-kernel guys once you have "enough" donations?

Great work!

Paul

I have a question similar to this. Once enough donations accumulate, can you release it more openly (you don't need to announce how much it is, just if there is going to be something like this in the future)? I realize, if this is released with the source, we can have community members take over if you stop supporting future updates, but yeah, it would be nice if you eventually officially sanctioned integration into Titan's kernel without the need to wait for you to make integrated versions whenever you're ready.

Also, donated. In Euros, even though I'm in the US, for your convenience. As a jobless college student, I understand how much money coming in helps.

Any chance of an old-style HostAP capable driver for AP mode? AdHoc doesn't work with my PSP nor wife's Android and probably loads of other devices. It would be very useful, I'd donate £50! I'm sure others would. The new wlan driver stack in post 2.6.30 built this stuff in to the wifi stack generically but we're stuck on 2.6.28 for the forseable future.
