[ath9k-devel] need help with TP-Link TP-WN821NC

[Oleksandr Yeremko]

Hi Everyone,

I have TP-Link TP-WN821NC v3.
When I insert it into my USB I get the next message in dmesg:

[ 1134.704223] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 7
[ 1134.823707] usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0cf3, idProduct=7015
[ 1134.823718] usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=16, Product=32,
SerialNumber=48
[ 1134.823725] usb 2-2: Product: USB WLAN
[ 1134.823730] usb 2-2: Manufacturer: ATHEROS
[ 1134.823735] usb 2-2: SerialNumber: 12345

But unfortunately that's the end of story - no new wireless network devices :(

I have downloaded all the .fw files and I already have all the
configuration changes described on
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k_htc

But situation is the same.

I have ath9k_htc module and my TP-Link TP-WN422G works fine. I use
Fedora 14 with 2.6.35.14-106.fc14.i686.PAE kernel version.

Could you, please, help me?

Best regadrs and wishes,
Oleksandr

2.6.35 is too old and I don't think that support for this card would
be present there. Please upgrade to a recent version [1].
