Description sime.kolic001 2012-12-23 16:49:36 UTC
I have D-Link DWA-160

There's newer version of 
/usr/lib/firmware/carl9170-1.fw on

http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/carl9170/fw1.9.4?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=carl9170-1.fw

md5sum:30e2ae80c33b3008d271556d1a14e3ea

I found it here 
http://aptosid.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=612

After replacing by newer file, suddanly works

Actually, that file isn't packaged in Fedora at all.  There is some on going work to get it packaged and built from source.
