I'm confused, Craig.
Earlier you asked about building on OSX for a 2.4.26 kernel on TS7250. I sent
you a toolchain.
Now you are talking about Debian - what kernel version? 2.6 or 2.4?
I have got the Iogear dongles working. Yes you have to load the zd_b.o modules.
On the TS7250 with busybox installed (ie, not Debian) I create
/etc/init.d/modules which contain the insmod commands I need and create a link
to it from /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S05modules.
Since I am not using Debian, there is no interfaces file - it's a bit different.
Be warned - not all zd_b.o files are the same. There are several versions
floating around even on the TS ftp site.
The one I used successfully with Busybox and 2.4.26-ts11 has size 312644 and
md5sum
ea5d1c980a6de67caac2a3fe4935fce5.
Where I got stuck was that DHCP didn't seem to play nicely with wlan0. Maybe
it was taking too long for the ssid to get established that udhcpc timed out.
