Hi everyone,
Let me start by saying that I appreciate the Debian Kirkwood kernel&rootfs package a lot and find it very helpful.
So here's the thing, I'm running the NSA325 successfully in my home network but the wife didn't like my cable clutter and made me move the NSA325 to another room that doesn't have ethernet.
I had a USB wifi stick lying around that I am using right now, it's the TPlink WN821Nv4 which is based on the RTL8192CU chipset. I use the rtl8192cu driver built into the kernel which runs okayish but not quite perfect. I googled a lot and read that the rtl8xxxu driver might work better, but it's not built in the kernel package (it's seems to be available for the Oxnas package though). So I wonder if anyone has ever played with this driver on a kirkwood machine and could point me to compile instructions. Alternatively, would it be possible to include this driver in the next kernel release for kirkwood?
Thanks so much in advance
Nilas
