Created attachment 199671 [details]
patch for Sitecom WLA-1000 and TP-Link TL-WN722N v2

Drivers are missing hardware ids for the following usb dongles:

Sitecom WLA-1000, 0x0df6:0x005b (driver: rsu)
TP-Link TL-WN722N v2, 0x2357:0x010c (driver: urtwn)

They are included in the attached diff.

There may be some issues, like:

wlan0: ieee80211_new_state_locked: pending INIT -> SCAN transition lost

rsu0: could not load firmware section EMEM
rsu0: could not send site survey command

but once configured and left alone it appears to work - except for interoperability with my Linux laptop which has a Broadcom wireless.

Hi,

Can you check WLA1000 with RSU_DEV_HT (instead of RSU_DEV) macro?

From the site http://www.sitecomlearningcentre.com/products/wla-1000v1001/wireless-network-usb-micro-adapter-n150-x1 HT seems to be supported by this dongle.
Comment 3 cezary.sliwa 2018-12-12 08:47:16 UTC
I tried with HT, as far as I remember this is when I get these messages about firmware loading problems; an initial scan shows some stations, then they all disappear.


NB. TP-Links products with differing version numbers have different chips. It may be a good idea to include the version number (v2) in the device name.

The remaining issue is that I am not able to use a hostap on FreeBSD from my Linux laptop (BCM43228).
