rt2570
You need at least the rt2570 v1.1.0-b2 or the CVS version.
But you should better use a specially patched one from http://homepages.tu-darmstadt.de/~p_larbig/wlan/.
ifconfig rausb0 down rmmod rt2570 wget http://homepages.tu-darmstadt.de/~p_larbig/wlan/rt2570-k2wrlz-1.5.1.tar.bz2 tar -xvjf rt2570-k2wrlz-1.5.1.tar.bz2 cd rt2570-k2wrlz-1.5.1/Module make && make install modprobe rt2570
Make sure to load the driver with modprobe (not insmod).
Troubleshooting Tips
There are reports of the aircrack-ng tools freezing and/or stop working.
Here are a few things to try:
- Try lowering injection rate
- Disable USB Legacy support in BIOS
- Use the newest kernel you can get
- Do NOT use the SMP version of this kernel (You will get a warning about this when compiling the driver)
- Use the newest 1.5.1 driver
- If the hardware totally loses its function: Use the oven method to get it back to live: http://tinyshell.be/aircrackng/forum/index.php?topic=233.msg6371#msg6371
