Networking Software. Trending from CNET. This driver is now integrated in the Orinoco driver collection v0. It is now part of the Linux kernel 2. Note that for cards that don't require the firmware download regular Pcmcia cards , it is recommended to use the regular Orinoco driver instead of this one.
Aironet was a division of Telxon, and was spun-off when Symbol, one of their competitor, did aquire Telxon. After a short independent life, Aironet was acquired by Cisco. The previous section was dealing with Aironet old pre Their first The Arlan family is These cards are based on the Harris Prism chipset, like many other cards see section 2. The MAC includes all the standard Conform to their reputation, their MAC is one of the richest in term of features, and one of the most performant.
The family Frequency Hopping eventually died, and I won't talk about it here. The family was quickly followed by the family, still based on the Prism chipset, adding 5. It is functionally equivalent to the , except that the new PrismII chipset allows lower price, greater sensitivity but force a lower transmit power 30 mW.
After the acquisition by Cisco, the Aironet B was renamed Cisco series exact same hardware, new name. Like Lucent, Cisco offer different cards with different level of encryption. The cards labelled feature no encryption, the cards labelled feature 40 bits encryption and the cards labelled feature bits encryption. Moreover, some versions of the Pcmcia card are sold with antenna but others without antennas.
Cisco has now released the Cisco , a new family of From the information I did gather, it seems to be equivalent to the series with a greater transmit power mW instead of 30 mW. The Cisco also improves the performance of the AP and introduce greater security Radius authentication and co. For some strange reason, this hardware is slightly different from the regular Aironet PCI. Cisco has also a wide range of IEEE The driver also has very complete WEP support.
Ben also told me that the driver was able to recognise the PC cards, but more work would be needed there to get it fully working. Recently, I've started adding Wireless Extension to this driver. Ben was kind enough to integrate properly my work in his driver. Then, Javier Achirica did an amazing job of completing Wireless Extension support power management, spy and co , and this driver has one of the most complete Wireless Extension support of all.
Then, Javier added to the driver the Cisco proprietary API, which allow communication with Cisco utilities see section 3. All this amazing work is in the latest release from Ben 1.
He also wrote a couple of open source utilities allowing to dump all the register of the card and to flash new firmwares through this API. Later, the driver has been integrated in the Linux kernel 2. Javier has also added the ability to dump raw Then Javier did extensive work to fix locking SMP support , add monitor mode and Wireless Scanning support in version 1. Ben and Javier are no longer active. Dan has fixed various bug and kept the driver up to date in the kernel, and Matthieu has added WPA support.
Monitor : No Multi-devices : - Interoperability : In fact, Elmer had developed this driver for a commercial company SpectrumWireless a while back and they agreed to let him release it in GPL form after some month.
The driver support both the and families. Unfortunately, the Pcmcia interface is incompatible with the Linux Pcmcia support and doesn't work well. Elmer told me that compared to Ben driver, his driver was probably more robust and featured but much less friendly. In essence, the focus was slightly different, so each driver has it own strength. This driver was removed from the Linux kernel during 2. X, so it is no longer available in kernel 2.
Rather than developing an entirely new driver, they decided to base their work on Ben 's driver section 3. One of the key person behind this operation was Jim Veneskey. The main contribution of Cisco is a proprietary API, which allow communication with Cisco utilities and, amongst other things, flashing new firmware on the card, and of course a set of utilities which are mostly identical to the Windows utilities.
They also provided nice installation scripts and did lot's of testing of the driver to guarantee its stability Cisco usually do some pretty intensive testing of their products. However, even if Cisco regularly synchronise with Ben 's driver section 3. As they are derived from the same base, it's easy to compare the two drivers. In term of features, I guess that Ben 's driver is winning, because it now has the Cisco API of this driver and more complete Wireless Extensions support. However, I believe that Cisco has an edge in term of stability.
I hope that the two drivers will merge rather than diverge, and that changes will be propagated from one to the other, so that we have a driver with both features and rock solid stability, but only time will tell Cisco told me that they were going to try to catch up with Ben 's driver. Note that Cisco changed their web site and their driver is no longer available as a public download.
I can not check if the driver still exist and what changed has been made to it. They have two version, the 5. The Swallow delivers all the features expected from a The main difference with other The modem is the famous Prism chipset used in many other cards see section 2.
This give them more performance and flexibility. He has patiently debugged the driver to fix races, timeouts and increase the performance.
Bas has also implemented Wireless Extension support for the security support, and support the full range of security features in the driver. Lately, Bas has been doing lot of work on roaming support. This interface also contains some other configuration parameters. The design and the feature of this card seems very similar to their previous one see section 3. The main difference seems that they are now using a PrismII modem see section 3. In fact, No Wires Needed contacted Bas to implement a driver for the new card.
Bas modified his Swallow driver and created this driver which offer very similar functionality and feature as the Swallow driver see section 3. So, the driver includes complete security support, Wireless Extensions and roaming support. All features of the card ad-hoc mode, encryption are configurable through Wireless Extensions. They started by buying Intalk , a company producing PrismI clones see section 2. On the other hand, it seem that Nokia has changed quite a few things compared to the original PrismII design, for example they have added a Smart Card reader on the Pcmcia card for security settings.
Later on, they moved this driver to their official driver page on their public web site. The driver contains a very thin source wrapper on top of the binary part one version for kernel 2.
X, one for 2. On the other hand, the package come with exhaustive set of complex Pcmcia scripts to configure the card and enable profiles. The USB version is by far the most popular, because it was first to market. Various Very little public information is available about those products, but as they are Of course, with any USB cards the main issue is performance.
Also, USB add a noticeable latency. I currently don't have any data on how well those cards performs in the respect. This driver is in fact a set of driver for the different combination of controllers and radios, and was initially based on a binary library.
However, Atmel changed their mind and eventually released the driver as full source GPL. The package from Atmel include specific configuration tools command line and X-Window. Just after the driver was GPL'ed, the support for Wireless Extensions was fixed and greatly enhanced by Ron Wireless Tools can now be used to configure the card.
Lately, Atmel has improved and enhanced the USB driver, but also removed support for Intersil radio, so you will need to use older version of the driver for products using Intersil radio. On the other hand, the Pcmcia driver seems to be still based on an older version of the code. Lately, the driver has gained support for kernel 2. At this time, the new driver is still in development, and therefore still has some limitations, but it already support both infrastructure and ad-hoc mode, and has some Wireless Extension support.
