Okay, the issue is: if you plug zd1201 into USB, it starts jamming radio, immediately. Enable/disable, or iwlist wlan0 scan, or basically any operation unjams the radio. This patch works it around: diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/zd1201.c b/drivers/net/wireless/zd1201.c index 335eaf3..dcc7bc7 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/zd1201.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/zd1201.c @@ -1835,8 +1835,8 @@ static int zd1201_probe(struct usb_inter zd->dev->name); usb_set_intfdata(interface, zd); - zd1201_enable(zd); - zd1201_disable(zd); + zd1201_enable(zd); /* zd1201 likes to startup enabled, interfering */ + zd1201_disable(zd); /* with all the wifis in range */ return 0; err_net: ....question is "is that right solution, or is something different needed to solve that problem properly"?
