This is another driver for the Atheros "otus" 802.11n USB devices.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This driver provides more features than the original,
|
|
|
|
|
but it needs a special firmware (carl9170-1.fw) to do that.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The firmware can be downloaded from our wiki here:
|
|

If you choose to build a module, it'll be called carl9170.

This option is necessary, if you want your device' LEDs to blink
