      I can't install the firmware for the malo device correct.

      Found this. http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=16541 But cant "make" because "make" isn't installed.

      Have also tried this firmware tips http://zentience.org/pdfman/section-4/malo.pdf.

      But can't get it work.  Some one got an idea?

        I need to add the malo firmware to the builds but you are the first person with a malo card I have seen ask about it. :-)

        You know that the malo cards do not support access point mode, right? They can only be station (infrastructure) nodes.

          I didn't know the malo only didn't support AP mode.  So my malo card I can throw away… But I can't get my RT2720 card work. Shouldn't the run driver be included?

              We have talked about that driver before and how it won't be added until they at least fix their broken driver name. A driver name shouldn't also include numbers, it would break things in several areas. From that thread it doesn't look like it's very stable either.
