New oleg firmware version

[lly]

I test it 16 hours and i think that firmware is better than oleg.

First of all, you have to say thanks to Linux kernel team
Second, Oleg also has plans to migrate to new kernel and he helps me at starting point.

And of course, animadversion to lazy Broadcom they don't want neither recompile wl driver to 2.6 kernel tree, nor open it sources!

Wow just found this new firmware and it sounds very interesting.
Tried it and what I saw until now looks very good.

The 1.1/2.0 USB bug annoys me a lot, so if this fixes it would be great. ( cant try since i mostly have 1.1 hubs due to the bug)
The Irda driver in the newest changelog looks intresting anyone knows how to use it.
I plugged un my Irda usb dongle and "lsusb" gives me: SigmaTel, Inc. STIr4200 IrDA Bridge.
So it seems like its detected, but i dont really know how to go on from here.
any help apreciated.

Thx to everyone trying to make the firmware even better!

This task is really huge and far away from complete. Ideally, it is necessary to backport entire EHCI driver from 2.6 kernel tree. Only about 8-10% done.

I've recently installed 1.9.2.7-10.
A wonderfull firmware!!

Is this the newest one (=1.9.2.7-d???) or have I got to install a newer one?

If you want you can install. I think that firmware is more stable than oleg.

You can download it from wl500g.googlecode.com

Still unusable for wl500gp users (like all other recent OLEG firmwares). Works only if "PPPoE Idle Disconnect Time" is set to "0"
