| Well, if you ask for it:
| - can only connect through command-line (not that important)
Sean McNeil is targeting getting the Android UI for that working at any
rate.
| - weak signal
Weak transmission or RX or both?
| - connexion lasts only for a few minutes
Hum.
| - after connexion is lost, reconnecting nearly always involves rebooting
Well, if this is due to SDIO side errors, this situation can have been
improved in andy-tracking. If it's due to firmware trouble, probably
this will never be fixed due to Atheros closed firmware policies.
| I think I already sent the kernel messages that appear in that case
| somewhere. I must confess that, as I wanted to use my Neo as a sort of
| internet tablet, it now just gathers dust somewhere, waiting for a WiFi
| fix.
Changing the SDIO stack is enough of a jolt it's probably worth blowing
the dust off and having another go according to your optimism / schedule
:-) At any rate if you do this please post on kernel list about your
experiences.
