I might be interested in modernizing the driver, but I have no idea how much effort it would be (in terms of changed fraction of code). 20k LOC is neither small or big, and not obvious (a lot of it would be unchanged), if it is a week of work, or months of work.

Hi Witold,

I am trying to do this with rtl8192e.
One possibility is to take the following patch series as a starting point:

For me as a beginner and hobbyist this is a huge task. I am happy when I can finish it until next summer.

In case of questions feel free to ask.

Bye Philipp
