Ralink 5370 bgn 150Mbps WiFi drivers - 2.6.18-7.4 dmxxxx kernels, for openpli based images (**beta** r0, so beware)

Installation:
a) Copy the relevant ipk to STB
b) In telnet console: opkg --force-overwrite install rt5370*.ipk (some images do support forced install via GUI)
c) Reboot
d) See notes smile

Notes:
- Checked on openpli based images with wpa_supplicant versions 0.5.8- 0.7.3 (and original NN2, Nemesis, etc)
- Security levels checked: unprotected, wep, wap, wap2 (tkip and aes). Some routers/APs won't work nicely under WPA/WPA2 AES mode.
- Best obtained speed thru 1 wall > 108Mbps.
- Some OpenPli based images autoload a bunch of WiFi drivers, they'll be disabled, so beware if using multi WiFi config (for some obscure reason).
- Tested with Broadcom, Realtech and Ralink chipsets in routers and APs. Due to various WiFi configurations (router chipsets/fw, drivers, security settings, STB WiFi underlying support in various images) YMMV quite considerably:).
- It might be time-saving to try first unsecured network, and escalate to the desired level, but then again, it might work out of the box:).
- If still unlinked, try to change bandwith (20, 40, 20+40 MHz), b+g(+n) and other settings on your router, and check /etc/wpa_supplicant.ra0.conf file or /etc/Wireless/RT2380STA/RT2380STA.dat (see attached settings.txt). Reboot if messing with RT2380STA.dat.
- Supported Ralink 5370 based HW (check yours with "lsusb"):

IPK for all OE,

TS

Are there any new drivers for Open Pli 7.3. Wifi dongle is 5370 chip...

I forgot to mention that I have Gigablue hd800se

You have all drivers in the feeds of Japhar images,

So you need to install with the opkg install commands or thru the Plugin section where you manage the extensions in the image.
