Thanks Stuart, It seems that it is a ver 1000 device and I have managed to get it (partly) working with the rt2x00 driver using the rt2500usb compile flag. This is what the USB port shows: ====================================================== Bus 002 Device 003: ID 050d:7050 Belkin Components F5D7050 ver 1000 WiFi > > Device Descriptor: > > bLength 18 > > bDescriptorType 1 > > bcdUSB 2.00 > > bDeviceClass 0 (Defined at Interface level) > > bDeviceSubClass 0 > > bDeviceProtocol 0 > > bMaxPacketSize0 64 > > idVendor 0x050d Belkin Components > > idProduct 0x7050 F5D7050 ver 1000 WiFi > > bcdDevice 0.01 > > iManufacturer 1 Belkin > > iProduct 2 Belkin 54g USB Network Adapter > > iSerial 0 > > bNumConfigurations 1 > > Configuration Descriptor: > > bLength 9 > > bDescriptorType 2 > > wTotalLength 32 > > bNumInterfaces 1 > > bConfigurationValue 1 > > iConfiguration 0 > > bmAttributes 0x80 > > MaxPower 300mA > > Interface Descriptor: > > bLength 9 > > bDescriptorType 4 > > bInterfaceNumber 0 > > bAlternateSetting 0 > > bNumEndpoints 2 > > bInterfaceClass 255 Vendor Specific Class > > bInterfaceSubClass 255 Vendor Specific Subclass > > bInterfaceProtocol 255 Vendor Specific Protocol > > iInterface 0 > > Endpoint Descriptor: > > bLength 7 > > bDescriptorType 5 > > bEndpointAddress 0x81 EP 1 IN > > bmAttributes 2 > > Transfer Type Bulk > > Synch Type None > > Usage Type Data > > wMaxPacketSize 0x0040 1x 64 bytes > > bInterval 0 > > Endpoint Descriptor: > > bLength 7 > > bDescriptorType 5 > > bEndpointAddress 0x01 EP 1 OUT > > bmAttributes 2 > > Transfer Type Bulk > > Synch Type None > > Usage Type Data > > wMaxPacketSize 0x0040 1x 64 bytes > > bInterval 0 > > Device Qualifier (for other device speed): > > bLength 10 > > bDescriptorType 6 > > bcdUSB 2.00 > > bDeviceClass 0 (Defined at Interface level) > > bDeviceSubClass 0 > > bDeviceProtocol 0 > > bMaxPacketSize0 64 > > bNumConfigurations 1 ======================================================
The problem is that this driver does not seem to provide the connection speed to the ap, and it does not like shutting down and restarting the device (it crashes and I get a kernel oops). I'll be sending a report to the driver developer when I get a minute. Meanwhile, I'd appreciate if you could tell me which chip this USB WiFi adaptor has.
