Looking at the zipfile for the windows driver, I see the following; Archive: WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT.zip Length Date Time Name -------- ---- ---- ---- 51 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/AUTORUN.INF 0 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/Drivers/ 0 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/Drivers/WMP54Gv4.0/ 7878 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/Drivers/WMP54Gv4.0/RT2500.CAT 17386 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/Drivers/WMP54Gv4.0/Rt2500.INF 243328 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/Drivers/WMP54Gv4.0/rt2500.sys Version 4.0 has a RealTek 2500 chipset which is supported by if_ral(4). 0 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/Drivers/WMP54Gv4.1/ 7870 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/Drivers/WMP54Gv4.1/rt61.cat 17479 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/Drivers/WMP54Gv4.1/Rt61.INF 356096 12-12-06 02:19 WMP54G-EU_LA_DRUT/Drivers/WMP54Gv4.1/rt61.sys Looking at rt61.sys with strings(1) reveals; rt2561.bin rt2561s.bin rt2661.bin Which indicates it uses a Ralink Technology RT2561 chip, which is also supported by if_ral(4) in -STABLE. I applied the patch from -STABLE to 6.2-RELEASE, and it works for me. I've got version 1.5 of if_ral_pci.c It is bloody annoying that you have to go plowing through the drivers to see what chip is inside.
