| The .close routine disables interrupts, stops rx and tx, and clears up the rings basically. Tomorrow I'll clear the rings and implement the ''nv_drain_rxtx'' routine. I'll also do the switch setup that Stefan suggested and see if .open and .close work :) | The .close routine disables interrupts, stops rx and tx, and clears up the rings basically.

| + | Today I started to set up the switch, which in fact is a [[http://www.productwiki.com/siemens-gigaset-se361-wlan/|router]]. Every issue mentioned in that page, I encountered it. I had to make some settings multiple times before the router saved them, plus it disconnects every now and then. I disabled its internal DHCP server, its DNS, and enabled NAT, and now the setup looks like this: | ||

| + | |192.168.2.101| | ||

| + | |||
| + | After that, I installed dhcp-server3 on my dev box and set it up. This took some time and I ran into some issues because I didn't have my IP statically configured. In the end, I booted a DSL from the dev pc using the old forcedeth driver. Tomorrow, I'll configure it so it gets an image containing my forcedeth driver and finally test it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The amount of issues with that router are staggering, and I hope now that it is stable, I can finally get some work done. I see some mentioning of low speeds when using it so I'll keep this in mind when I test the driver's speeds. | ||

| + | Finally got around to testing .open and .close and they seem to work fine. I'll only be sure of this when I implement .transmit and .poll and see if the settings made in .open are correct. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Got some nice feedback regarding the driver after the weekly meeting. The plan is to finish the driver until the end of the next week. So far so good. | ||
