07:04 kelly_ http://linuxgizmos.com/open-source-openwrt-router-has-automatic-updates/
07:04 kelly_ looks a lot like clearfog
07:04 kelly_ by the specs, i'd rather have clearfog
09:00 rabeeh cbxbiker61: yeah; almost same specs
09:00 rabeeh we are in contact with them; uses same chipset as clearfog
09:02 cbxbiker61 rabeeh, does clearfog have a place to pull 5v from? it seem some of the good ath10k mini-pcie use a separate 5v feed
09:03 rabeeh oh really?
09:03 rabeeh there is 5v on the microbus header
09:03 rabeeh i have an ath10k and booted it and lspci it without the extension 5v
09:03 cbxbiker61 where'd you get the ath10k?
09:03 rabeeh if you look at the schematics we have preparations for 25W 5V for some Marvell 4x4 11ac cards
09:04 rabeeh compex
09:04 rabeeh the module here WLE900VX 7AA
09:04 jnettlet cbxbiker61, I believe that is if your board doesn't support powering the card in suspend, or when completely powered off. You can leave the ath10k card running with its own power source
09:05 cbxbiker61 how well is Marvell going to support current kernel revs? that seems to be a sticking point with almost all of the wireless chips
09:06 jnettlet cbxbiker61, rmk already has added lots of support for upstream. He is just waiting to get the docs to finalize his patchsets
09:06 jnettlet he completely reworked the SFP support in the kernel to support hotplugging and autodetection.
