TNETW1130 (ACX111) / TNETW1100 (ACX100) / TNETW1450 wireless network card device matrix

(this device table layout shamelessly stolen from the Atmel Linux driver project)

This table seeks to list all (well, most) WLAN cards that use the TNETW1130 (aka ACX111) 802.11g+/b+ chipset or the TNETW1100 (aka ACX100) 802.11b+ chipset or the newish TNETW1450 802.11g+/b+ USB chipset and their support status by this Open-Source Linux driver (go back to driver homepage here).
If you have an chip device or a vendor that is not listed here yet (several devices are being sold by multiple vendors, it seems), then please mail to andi at a host called lisas.de
Please include as much information that's relevant to this matrix as possible (I really want to spend time programming the driver instead of doing stupid maintenance work).

Here is another page listing various cards and firmware versions.

key: 1) The SS1021 is one of too many ACX100 devices that play the stupid naming game: The old non-gold connector SS1021 has Orinoco chipset, the new gold connector SS1021 has ACX100. Don't buy this card!
2) The + in DWL-120+, DWL-520+ and DWL-650+ is what's important:
The normal version uses the good and well-supported Prism 2.5 chipset, whereas the + version uses the obscure ACX100 chipset.
Oh wait, it's even worse: a newer version of the DWL-650 (the one with grey antenna) is said to also have the ACX100, so it's even more difficult to tell them apart!! ARGH! Consider not buying these cards! (plus, the 650+ seems to be defective/problematic much more often than other cards, in my experience)
3) These cards all have the same FCCID, so I combined them in one entry. Their actual case design often differs a bit, however.
4) You might be able to configure these access points via Debian package ap-utils! Confirmation wanted!
5) This is the first implementation of an ACX100 in USB mode we've seen. We suspected it to be an ACX100 before, but now it's finally been confirmed :) USB support is being developed. Details: main chip: tnetw1100bghh, e e 2cdfcet; Maxim chip: max2820, egm 302, a7n0fu; h/w a1 f/w 1.00.
6) The USR 2210 plays the same stupid naming game: one guy reported that he bought it at tigerdirect.com only to find out that it didn't contain the ACX100 as the 2210 versions normally do, but instead an incompatible 802.11g TI chip! Don't buy any 2210 card!
7) The LCS-8032 has semi-problematic naming:
The -B extension version has an ACX100, whereas no extension means PRISM chip and -R means Realtek chip.
8) The WL-400X claims to have 22Mbps PBCC support, but it has a Ralink chipset according to Fiberline support! And I'm not even sure about its PBCC support yet, since there's no Ralink PBCC evidence whatsoever...
9) The XN-2422G/WG2400 is the version with ACX111 chipset, NOT the XN-2422G/WG2000!! Same for XN-2522G. Need to mention that Xterasys has an exceptionally detailed specifications overview on driver and product pages, though...
10) I became a victim of irritating naming practice of Sitecom myself: I bought the WL-120, only to discover that it had a tiny temporary product ID label "WL-120 v2". I thus tried to find out on the Internet (even still in the shop!) which card contains which chipset on the Sitecom website. Result: NOTHING. Final outcome: I bought the wrong card (v2), so I immediately returned it to the shop and let them know why I returned it, and I let Sitecom know that I'm rather unhappy about the fact that they sell new hardware that you can't find any information about. Furthermore, the card doesn't even contain an FCC ID anywhere, and I couldn't quickly identify an FCC ID similar to the XG30245 product name for the M4Y FCC grantee anywhere on the FCC website! The only thing I could see on the card was the serial number (see above)
Since Sitecom have an exceptionally good support hotline, told me that they'd investigate that and appear to be very supportive of Linux (and are very fast to react, too!), I'd still consider their offering to be very good. Just make sure you buy the correct card...
