Package: usbutils Version: 0.73-10 Netgear manufacture a 54Mbps USB wireless adapter called the WG111 (they also produced 108 Mbps adapters called the WG111U/WG111T but this bug report is not about them). See http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/wg111.asp
The Netgear WG111 was initially based on the Prism 54 chipset. Netgear changed the WG111 to use the RTL8187L chipset producing the WG111v2. Later Netgear changed the WG111 to use the RTL8187B chipset producing the WG111v3. usb.ids includes the following lines under 0846 Netgear 4220 WG111(v1) 54 Mbps Wireless [Intersil Prism54 Intersil 3886] 4240 WG111v2 54 Mbps Wireless [RealTek RTL8187L] 4260 WG111v3 54 Mbps Wireless [realtek RTL8187B] 6a00 WG111v2 54 Mbps Wireless [RealTek RTL8187L] The 4240 line is wrong. 0846:4240 is a prism 54 based WG111 supported by the p54usb driver. Output from lsusb -v as root includes iProduct 2 NETGEAR WG111 The line 6a00 is correct. 0846:6a00 is a RTL8187L based WG111v2 supported by the rtl8187 driver. Output from lsusb -v as root includes iProduct 2 NETGEAR WG111v2 I see that the p54usb driver supports both the 0846:4220 and 0846:4240. I also see from a web search that lsusb output for 0846:4240 used to contain WG111 (v2). I presume someone didn't release that 0846:4240 is a second USB ID for a WG111 and not a WG111v2 and incorrectly changed the 0846:4240 entry. I suggest that the 4240 line should be 4240 WG111(v1) rev2 54 Mbps Wireless [Intersil Prism54] p.s. From doing a web search 0846:4260 appears to be the RTL8187B based WG111v3 not another USB ID for the WG111. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
