Hello everyone,

in the WiFi section of the OI wiki is a list of "Other supported WiFi
devices" [1] and there is also the Edimax EW-7811Un [2] listed.

I've got that USB WiFi adapter and want to used it on my OpenIndiana
server box to create a wireless access point for my mobile devices.
But after plugging it in, the dmesg output is telling me that there's
no driver for the device available:

Jan  8 08:12:22 aki usba: [ID 912658 kern.info] USB 2.0 device
(usb7392,7811) operating at hi speed (USB 2.x) on USB 2.0 external

found for interface 0 (nodename: 'interface') of Realtek 802.11n WLAN
Adapter 00e04c000001

And as expected, dladm is not showing any new link available. Do I
have to install an additional package or execute a command to get the
device working?

Almost forgot: I'm running OpenIndiana 151a9
Tell me if you need any additional information.

Best regards,

Hanno
