The EU on the end is very significant.  That variant is not supported at
the moment.  I have some (old) local mods that get the firmware loaded
but I was stuck on getting the interface actually passing packets.  It
is not just a matter of adding the USB id unfortunately, the method of
loading the firmware is not the same as the other 8192 chipset variants.

Normally the dmesg is persistent, but it can get wiped if the computer
crashes "too hard". Then something wipes the memory (maybe the BIOS does
that??) and it is lost.

Wireless USB Adapter

2018-10-02 Thread imglitch
Hi,
First of all, this is my first time using a mailing list so if something goes 
wrong, forgive me.

So, I took a look at 
http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?urtwn+4.i386+NetBSD-8.0 and despite the 
fact the my specific device is not listed on the hardware list, it`s chipset is 
listed as one of the supported ones. If the chipset is supported, then why it 
is loaded as ugen when I plug it on my laptop?

My adapter: TP-LINK TL WN823N
Chipset: RTL8192EU

Thank you
