EW-7811Un - Need help settig PID/VID

[EllisD]

Can someone please help me here? Trying to use my Edimax dongle with my Samsung C-series.

The results of my iwpriv are :

wlan1 Available private ioctls :
rtw_write32 (8BE0) : set 2 int & get 0
rtw_read32 (8BE1) : set 1 int & get 16 char
driver_ext (8BE2) : set 0 & get 0
apinfo (8BE4) : set 1 int & get 0
setpid (8BE5) : set 2 int & get 0
wps_start (8BE6) : set 1 int & get 0
get_sensitivity (8BE7) : set 1 int & get 0

pm_set (8BF6) : set 64 char & get 0
rereg_nd_name (8BF8) : set 16 char & get 0
efuse_set (8BFA) : set 128 char & get 0
efuse_get (8BFB) : set 128 char & get 1792 char

So I can't use the "e2p" ioctl mentioned here http://wiki.samygo.tv/index.php5/Using_ ... #Basic_Way to set the PID/VID.

I'm stuck. Please help

You can skip dirver compilation. Here is ready driver, all what you need is:

1. download ubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-i386.iso
2. make live USB (use a UNetbootin ) or boot it as live cd OR boot to vmware. Quick search on google - first video from youtube:

(use option 2 to make from Diskimage)
3. download driver for ubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-i386 ubuntu release.
4. Insmod the driver

Code: Select all

insmod /<path to this module>/rt5572sta.ko

5. follow VID&PID change procedure. (from step8)
