After connecting Dlink DWA-525 PCI rev A2 wlan adapter to my PC and
booting Haiku, the system properly detects this card via ralinkwifi
driver, but in the dropdown menu from the Network Preferences's tray icon,
there are no any wi-fi networks aviable. Network Preferences dialog shows
the same empty list of the wi-fi networks. Also I see the empty list when
trying to scan aviable networks via ifconfig using
{{{
ifconfig /dev/net/ralinkwifi/0 list
}}}
or
{{{
ifconfig /dev/net/ralinkwifi/0 scan
}}}
commands.
Although listdev detects this wlan card correctly too:
{{{
device Network controller [2|80|0]
vendor 1814: Ralink corp.
device 5360: RT5360 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R
}}}
And this adapter is also supported by FreeBSD 11.1 release:
https://www.freebsd.org/releases/11.1R/hardware.html#wlan what is said in
the Haiku user guide: https://www.haiku-os.org/docs/userguide/en/workshop-
wlan.html
I can confirm - this wi-fi card is fully functional and works & detects
wi-fi networks correctly in Linux (Lubuntu 16.04.5 x32).
Motherboard of my PC is MSI MS-7267.
Tested with the latest hrev52462.
See attachments for details.
