Tracing and dissembling
Will somebody explain how to get this thing to trace and dissemble? I want to tell the driver to do something and watch what happens with the firmware. :/ Something tells me I'll have to walk the driver to figure out what it tells the firmware, and walk the firmware to figure out how it reacts, since getting a debugger running IN the 88W8388 is technically hard.
- Get JTAG or use an emulator.
Register Descriptions
Take a look at the zipfile at http://ftp.gpl-devices.org/pub/vendors/Netgear/WGR101/WGR101_V1009_package.zip
