[SOLVED] NSA310S ath9k_htc Firmware - ath9k_htc.fw not found

Postby chiarpavel » Sun May 10, 2015 2:05 pm

Hi! I was trying to use a USB WiFi dongle (TL-WN422G) with my NSA310S and a few seconds after connecting it I got the following:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[ 495.482873] usb 1-1.3: new high speed USB device number 3 using orion-ehci
[ 495.675696] cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain
[ 556.862694] usb 1-1.3: ath9k_htc: Firmware - htc_9271.fw not found
[ 556.868872] ath9k_htc: probe of 1-1.3:1.0 failed with error -22
[ 556.877079] usbcore: registered new interface driver ath9k_htc')

I'm not sure why it says it can't find the firmware because I can find it in /lib/firmware and /usr/lib/firmware.
Is there any way to load the firmware or should it be in a different location? Could this be a different issue?

Also, please note that I've been having trouble with networking on this device as described in this thread. I want to set up wlan eventually anyway and it might help with troubleshooting now.

You should get the other rootfs with kirkwood in its name. It has newer kernel possibly with the driver working.

That worked, thanks!

Had to transfer a few packages (iw, wpa_supplicant, libnl) on an USB stick to get wifi set up, but it's done.
