Re driver preference
Regarding the preference "rt2800usb:rt2870sta", I rewrote the code that handles that in Woof, but Lucid is built with an old version of Woof prior to that rewrite.

You might want to inform tempestuous that Drake Puppy 0.3 has the 2.6.39.3 kernel. Search my blog for "drake" to learn more.

pemasu has also built some puppies with the 2.6.39.3 kernel.

Drake is built from a very recent Woof, and I expect that the driver preferences mechanism is working.
have drake03 and will test later.

aarf,
Thanks for contacting me. Could you make a run as you did originally (without the preference and blacklisting) and run pmodemdiag to capture the situation. Then I might be able to see something that has not been considered. The fact that the preference did not seem to work suggests there could be two wifi devices, USB and PCI, that take similar drivers. At least the diag file would let us rule out that possibility.

Thanks.
Richard
am changing the names and numbers in the output to protect the innocent.. still not finished . although wlan was disabled in the bios when running the test and the blue wifi indicator light on the eeepc was not on, i have a sneeking suspicion that these drivers have by- passed that disable and are also using my on board wifi as well as the usb dongle. we shall see..

may have been a little hasty attributing the fasterspeed and name change to the N modifications
below is when using pfix=ram for doing rerwins request.

may have been ok all along. but i didnt know how to test what wifi it was using.

Bit Rate=18 Mb/s this has changes through 2 Mb/s to 24 Mb/s on sequential requests of iwconfig on the N modified luci268.

summary so far :we dont have a reliable way to test that it is connected to a N signal or even if an N signal exists. wlan0 name change in iwconfig may be wifi card name change.
cant be certain that WirelessMode=6 is actually doing anything at all.

aarf,
Thanks for the diag file. Both the USB and STA drivers are indicated as supporting the USB device. The USB driver is the one chosen to be loaded, even without a preference. But the STA module somehow also gets loaded -- outside of the normal puppy module-loading process. I see no indication in modules.dep that there is a dependency relationship.

From your postings, I am not confident that you made a valid test of the blacklisting option. You say you blacklisted, but that lsmod still shows the STA module. You need to reboot for the blacklisting to take effect. Could you try it again? I have an idea of how to automate the blacklisting, so need to know whether that is effective. Does the STA module still get loaded even if blacklisted?

I also have a slightly different approach in mind. The attached dotpet package uses a modprobe configuration file to control the loading of rt2870sta when rt2800usb is already loaded. Please try it only after the blacklist test, since we need to establish whether this activity is beyond the control of blacklisting (as in loading as a dependency). The package can be uninstalled, if necessary. The file contains this install statement:

Code: Select all

install rt2870sta sleep 1; /bin/lsmod | /bin/grep -q '^rt2800usb ' && /bin/true || /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install rt2870sta
Again, the evidence will be whether lsmod shows rt2870sta as loaded. But the main evidence is whether you get any better results with the device.

my quote from above

so blacklisted rt2800usb
and then lsmod gives
usbcore 91279 7 uvcvideo,rt2870sta,usbhid,usb_storage,uhci_hcd,ehci_hcd
i blacklisted only rt2800usb as tempestous suggested so that only the rt2870sta would load . i didnt blacklist rt2870sta. do i need to redo something? are you suggesting i use the rt2800usb and not the rt2870sta.

i currently dont have a valid and reliable means to measure "whether (I) get any better results with the device. "
ok i will try a backlist of rt2870sta and not rt2800usb but cannot be certain that i wiil know if the results are any better.

rerwin, just to make sure we're all on the same page here;
aarf's intention was that the rt2870sta module should load in preference to the rt2800usb module,
as confirmed by the modules-preference he set -

Code: Select all

rt2800usb:rt2870sta
But upon reboot, in addition to the rt2870sta module, the rt2800usb module was also loaded.

Then he blacklisted the rt2800usb module.

My understanding is that the blacklisting function worked OK, but the modules-preference setting did not work.

then attempt wifi connection for first time (attached)
so rt2870sta blacklists ok, but N wifi doesnt like rt2870sta being blacklisted.

at an opportune moment i will ask for the make - model of the grotty hotel wifi router. then we will know which trees we are barking up.

more writing on the box: wireless ADSL 2/2+
operating in "OPEN" not encryption mode = no passcode required.

IEEE 802.11n-2009
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

IEEE 802.11n-2009 is an amendment to the IEEE 802.11-2007 wireless networking standard to improve network throughput over the two previous standards—802.11a and 802.11g—with a significant increase in the maximum raw data rate from 54 Mbit/s to 600 Mbit/s with the use of four spatial streams at a channel width of 40 MHz.[1][2]

802.11 is a set of IEEE standards that govern wireless networking transmission methods. They are commonly used today in their 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n versions to provide wireless connectivity in homes and businesses.
as previously posted for no N dongle using wirelessG on my eepc there is Rate=24 Mb/s

Code: Select all

 iwconfig 
 lo        no wireless extensions. 

 wlan0     IEEE 802.11bg  ESSID:"Grotty HOTEL"  
           Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.412 GHz  Access Point: 00:67:0E:42:90:5E    
           Bit Rate=24 Mb/s
riger ADSL 2/2+ specs have maximum speed as Bit Rate=24 Mb/s
so assume it is G. not N.
which means that the WirelessMode=6 modification is not doing anything as i can still see and connect when that modification is in place.

summary so far: dont buy a wifi N unless you know for certain that you can access an N signal and as tempestous advises : AND that there are no wifi-G users attempting to use the same router.
looks like slim pickings to me. any comments?
there vast amounts of wifi signals just a short distance from me but i have no way to know if they are N or not for testing.

#34 Post by aarf »

a method to know the wifi signal? in the Network Wizard scan when the signals are listed if you mouse over it shows "Frequency" and at the end "G" is this what I have been searching for? does anyone with an N show an "N"? mine are all G.

frequency is 2.4xxxG
perhaps looking for frequency 40.xxxN?
EEE 802.11g-2003 or 802.11g is an amendment to the IEEE 802.11 specification that extended throughput to up to 54 Mbit/s using the same 2.4 GHz band as 802.11b. This specification under the marketing name of Wi-Fi has been implemented all over the world. The 802.11g protocol is now Clause 19 of the published IEEE 802.11-2007 standard.

Just to continue where aarf left.

And this will be a little convoluted as I have been interrupted
so many times as I typed.

"""""

Yesterday i bought a N150 wifi usb for Puppy testing, at
North Rocks computer markets....AU$19

http://www.northrockscomputermarket.com.au/

///////

I could not get it to work....in XP or Puppy.
XP because there were no drivers included....
although I got sent them today. So now working.

This N150 is also working in XP because I use the old version of Network Magic. A must have 4 XP or Vista....

on Win7...the only thing they got right is connecting to hidden
networks. So you don't need it it.

Still let’s you use the simple features after 7 days.
Don't update.

http://www.datafilehost.com/download-d257a07e.html

So after many hours of trying it in Puppy I have got it working
in Barry's latest Wary.

I also got it running in >> dpupsqueeze >> puppy_squeeze_5.0.0.3.

"""""

What I did was I found out in the Win files that this was
a Ralink RT2870 but Puppy reported it as RT2800.

However the Windows inf says

"rt2870.inf

This installation script supports Windows 2000 & XP for the

Ralink RT2870 series USB Wireless LAN Card. "

""

So I used rerwin's >> rt2800usb_test-1.pet
and then restarted xserver

I then installed the >> rt3572sta for RT2870/RT35xx

rt3572sta-v2.5.0.0-k2.6.33.2.pet

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 085#481085

I restarted xserver again and then proceeded to run the
Classic Network Wizard .....>> not the >> Simple Network Wizard..

I first clicked on >> Test wlan0

and Auto DHCP

clicked on >>> Wireless >> Scan

Selected one of the available networks.....>> my hidden network

ticked >>WPA2

as I run >> WPA2-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 with Pre-Shared Key)

added my user name into >> Profile Name and >> Essid

typed my password into >> Shared Key

Clicked >> Save and >> Use this Profile.

The Wizard connects >> acquiring connection

and then I repeated the step

>> Clicked again on >> Test wlan0 and Click on Auto DHCP

Xdialog reported >>> Network Configuration of wlan0 Successful

Do you want to save this configuration

I clicked >> Yes....and >> Done

>>> You have finished running Dougal's Network Wizard

Clicked >>> Yes Set as Default...>> Clicked OK

//////

Edit:

and everything works....but not on my second test...aghhh!
It seems that Lucid 525...lucid260...lucid 267RC may after all
require a save and a reboot.

Because they will not see a hidden network.

Wary 5.13 is doing the same now.
I rebooted and saved...64megs only and it rebooted
and connected after the above actions are done.

I will test Squeeze again...without a save.


I add the inf file and I thank tempestuous and rerwin for fixes,
and aarf for getting me to try and make it work without rebooting.

Chris..

@cthisbear
what was the brand name on the N150 wifi usb?
does mouse-over in netword wizard show an N in any wifi signal frequency ?or does the frequency start with anything other than 2.4?
and are you getting any speed and distance?
