I'm 99% sure this part is not needed because this chipset only supports B, G and N WiFi networks.

I think we should add pdev_network->NetworkTypeInUse = Ndis802_110FDM5 to default case to be 100% sure it won't break anything.
If we do this we can be sure pdev_network->NetworkTypeInUse will be set.
Should I make a new version of this patch?
