Dlink DWL-G122 Rev D

[Rick Bronson]

Ronak,

  One last question.

  Assuming I have the right firmware (extracted from the *.sys file)
for this part and assuming that the unit is downloaded and running
(the "Lnk" light comes on), then would it be a big task?  In other
words is the USB API a lot different between the 8338 and the 8388?

  Thanks,

  Rick
