Notice the "plus" in the model number? The "plus" series of

cards from D-Link use the Texas Instruments ACX100 chipset. TI

has not been forthcoming with programming information.

The DWL-650 comes in three flavors; older ones have grey
|
|
|
|
|
antennae, with no revision number on the back.
|
|
|
|
|
Second-generation has a black antenna and the back reads
|
|
|
|
|
"H/W J3 F/W 1.x.x". Both of these will work. The third-
|
|
|
|
|
generation, with a grey antenna, has "H/W A1, F/W x.x", and
|
|
|
|
|
will NOT work; It has the same hardware as the "plus" series
|
|
|
|
|
of cards.

The "plus" series of cards from D-Link use the Texas Instruments

We've been told that TI will be releasing binary-only Linux
|
|
|
|
|
drivers sometime in December. In the mean time, return the
|
|
|
|
|
card and buy one that works with Linux.
