This should be reported to the kernel component (where the zd1211rw driver live), not the firmware. Olaf, have you done this in your kernels? Does the driver actually work with that device? John, I have just added the vendor id to the static struct usb_device_id usb_ids[] of the kd_usb.c, recompiled the kernel and modules and everything worked fine. I've been using this device since without any issues. Even WPA2 is working well. Created attachment 358300 [details]
