Forum Topic - mini PCI Express mini wireless card for io-net / io-pkt ?: (3 Items)
   
mini PCI Express mini wireless card for io-net / io-pkt ?  
Are there any mini PCI Express wireless cards supported by io-net ?
If not, how about io-pkt ?

There seem to be a bunch available, but have we tested any ?

Thanks !

Dave
RE: mini PCI Express mini wireless card for io-net / io-pkt ?  
Hi Dave:
	Funnily enough, we've just been trying out this one:

http://www.embeddedworks.net/wlan/oem_miniPCI_80211g.html#wlan110

which has the BCM4318 chip on it.  The io-net driver should work with it
and we've got the io-pkt driver working on x86 and PPC 8548.  However,
neither the io-net or io-pkt driver works on a PPC440 platform.  We've
traced that down to some sort of timing issue that we're actively trying
to fix.  The io-pkt driver isn't yet publicly available due to licensing
issues though.

	Robert.

Oops!  Just realized that this is a mini-PCI (not mini-PCI express)
card.
We haven't specifically tried out any mini-PCI express cards at this
point in io-pkt.
