...Searching forums I've came to this thread. It is about rt2870 chip, however, there is a link to a site that contains correct driver for rt2860 chipset also by Alexander Egorenkov.
This drivers works and I type this message using my wireless connection and Konqueror. :)
I wonder is...
...if present, would override whatever is built in.
8.0 came out in November 2009, and lots of things have been updated since then. 8.2 or 8-STABLE would be much better. There's also an rt2860 driver that's been mentioned in the forums. I don't have the hardware, so haven't paid much...
...this site (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/config-network-setup.html)
Also, I figured out, that my network card is based on a Ralink chip RT2860 and has two needed files to wrap that driver, rt2860.sys and rt2860.inf.
So, after perfoming every exact step from a setting up a network card...

Yes, I am pretty sure I took the correct version. I even tried copying rt2860.ko in /boot/modules with a chmod 555 /boot/modules/rt2860.ko but when I call it I get an error again.

This thread has more information about rt2860 driver.
As far as I know, the driver should be get loaded with kldload. You can forget about rt2860.sh.
Is that correct? Not rt2860_amrr_tx_complete or something else?
Are you sure you are using the correct version of the driver? One for 8.0...

If are sure there is no compile error this time then to get it working (requires super user permissions):
cp rt2860.ko /boot/modules/
chmod 555 /boot/modules/rt2860.ko
load it up without rebooting:

Sadly, the driver that you posted will not compile for me. I have the same card as this fellow.

This driver may be doomed to go unsupported. run driver may support it or maybe rum. I have attached an updated rt2860 that should recognize your chip but it may be very dangerous to use it. It could be a very different product.
Attachment moved to later post->
...in time to stop it from rebooting.
So I tried again using the if_ndis.ko and ndis.ko files I made with your NDISulator code, as well as the rt2860 driver I build with your code. When booting with your code, I also no longer get a panic. However, here's an oddity: even though my ndis driver...
...and ndis.ko files in /boot/kernel/, as expected. I then used ndisgen with the latest win32 drivers from Ralink to generate a .ko file for my rt2860 card.
When I load rt2860_sys.ko (which in turn loads if_ndis.ko and ndis.ko), I get the following output:
NDIS: no match for ExEventObjectType...
Still get issues with RT2860
Hi all,
I have an Asus EEE 901 running i386 FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE. I upgraded from 8.0-RELEASE a couple of weeks ago because I was getting intermittent failures of the rt2860 driver (the "rt28600: Tx watchdog timeout: resetting" messaged others have noticed), and I...
Rt3062
Hi egorenar,
It looks like you have spent a lot of time and work on RT2860/RT2870 support. If you are still enhancing the driver, can it be extended for the RT3062 chipset also?
Hi! Egornar. Good job!
Is your driver set can work with rt3572 chip (LinkSys WUSB600n v.2) ?
Can say, that my ASUS WL-130N (pci) work fine with your RT2860 under FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE.
One more question: Do you have any HCL for your driver set?
Thanx for you answers!
...is a PCI card from B-Link - a BL-LW04-A2. The documentation I have found indicates that the card utilizes the RaLink RT2760 rather than the RT2860 chip. However, earlier in the thread (January 9th 2010), in a response to a post by Halt, egorenar indicated that the RT2860 driver should support...
(Missed the second part - sorry.)
No interface is shown by ifconfig. However, I thought nothing would be shown until after the "ifconfig create..." step. Did I misunderstand what tim-m89 meant?
In GENERIC, Ralink RT2500 wireless cards have device names of ral*. Is that what I should see in...
[Solved] Ralink rt2870 wifi support?
I am trying to install and configure a WiFi card that utilizes the RaLink rt2860 chipset. I did a new installation of FreeBSD 8.1 and then upgraded to 8.2 PreRelease.
Then, I followed the above instructions and downloaded the the rt2860 driver for 8.0 ran...
