Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Nanostation antenna selection support
Thank you Ulf. Just one question, how do you switch on and off the diversities?

Results may not be reliable. That's what my objdump claims to support as a -m switch (of course we're guessing about how ksymoops calls objdump, but it's an educated guess) In this case, there was no call to objdump. Using strace I can see calls to nm, but nothing about objdump. This is getting mostly academic though as I do now have a new firmware based on r12987 which does have a functional b43 driver in it. I say functional because while it does work, it shoots the softirq up through the roof while there is bulk data flying through the wireless interface. I will post about that in a few mins. b. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org http://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Nanostation antenna selection support
2008/10/19 Xavier Martinez [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Thank you Ulf. Just one question, how do you switch on and off the diversities? hi xavier, well on and off may not the best words for this, general you use gpios to switch between off/on or left/right, or high/low, or 0/1. and the nanostation has two such switches and by default each switch is at position/direction... so thit is by default the external antenna plug. regards ulf ___ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org http://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
