ModelName:
===========
RT2860 Wireless Lan Linux Driver


=======================================================================
Driver lName:
=============
rt2860.o/rt2860.ko


=======================================================================
Supporting Kernel:
===================
linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6 series. 
Tested in Redhat 7.3 or later.


=======================================================================
Description:
=============
This is a linux device driver for Ralink RT2860 ABGN WLAN Card.


=======================================================================
Contents:
=============
Makefile	        : Makefile
*.c					: c files
*.h					: header files


=======================================================================
Features:
==========
   This driver implements basic IEEE802.11. Infrastructure and adhoc mode with 
   open or shared or WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK authentication method. 
   NONE, WEP, TKIP and AES encryption. 


=======================================================================
Build Instructions:  
====================

1> $tar -xvzf DPB_RT2860_Linux_STA_x.x.x.x.tgz
    go to "./DPB_RT2860_Linux_STA_x.x.x.x" directory.
    
2> In Makefile
	 set the "MODE = STA" in Makefile and chose the TARGET to Linux by set "TARGET = LINUX"
	 define the linux kernel source include file path LINUX_SRC
	 modify to meet your need.

3> In os/linux/config.mk 
	define the GCC and LD of the target machine
	define the compiler flags CFLAGS
	modify to meet your need.
	** Build for being controlled by NetworkManager
	   Please set 'HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y' and 'HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y'.
	** Build for being controlled by WpaSupplicant with Ralink Driver
	   Please set 'HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y' and 'HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=n'.

4> $make									# compile driver source code

5> $cp RT2860STA.dat  /etc/Wireless/RT2860STA/RT2860STA.dat       
    # !!!check if it is a binary file before loading !!!  
    
6> load driver
    #[kernel 2.4]
    #    $/sbin/insmod rt2860sta.o
    #    $/sbin/ifconfig ra0 inet YOUR_IP up
        
    #[kernel 2.6]
    #    $/sbin/insmod rt2860sta.ko
    #    $/sbin/ifconfig ra0 inet YOUR_IP up

7> unload driver    
    $/sbin/ifconfig ra0 down
	$/sbin/rmmod rt2860sta
	
=======================================================================
CONFIGURATION:  
====================
RT2860 driver can be configured via following interfaces, 
i.e. (i)"iwconfig" command, (ii)"iwpriv" command, (iii) configuration file

i)  iwconfig comes with kernel.  
ii) iwpriv usage, please refer to file "iwpriv_usage.txt" for details.
iii)modify configuration file "RT2860STA.dat" in /etc/Wireless/RT2860STA/RT2860STA.dat.
           
Configuration File : RT2860STA.dat
---------------------------------------
# Copy this file to /etc/Wireless/RT2860STA/RT2860STA.dat
# This file is a binary file and will be read on loading rt.o module.
#
# Use "vi -b rt61sta.dat" to modify settings according to your need.
# 
# 1.) set NetworkType to "Adhoc" for using Adhoc-mode, otherwise using Infrastructure
# 2.) set Channel to "0" for auto-select on Infrastructure mode
# 3.) set SSID for connecting to your Accss-point.
# 4.) AuthMode can be "WEPAUTO", "OPEN", "SHARED", "WPAPSK", "WPA2PSK", "WPANONE"
# 5.) EncrypType can be "NONE", "WEP", "TKIP", "AES"
# for more information refer to the Readme file.
# 
#The word of "Default" must not be removed
