You can no longer download it, the website has vanished. I 
actually got the filename wrong, the file used to be at

   http://www.agere.com/support/drivers/wl_lkm_718_release.tar.gz

I got the 7.18 driver working with both Hermes I and Hermes II 
cards on 2.4 and 2.6.15 an a PXA255 based embedded device. There 
both H1- and H2-drivers supported WEP+WPA (not WPA2).

I never had success with 7.22 on my embedded device.


For 2.6.25, I only have Hermes II running somewhat, the source 
for this was the Ubuntu-Forum. This one is based on the 
wl_lkm_718_release.tar.gz code, not on 7.22. You can download it 
there only with registration, AFAIK. Did I mention that I don't 
really like forums?


Some of my ancient patches are here:

http://git.openembedded.net/?p=org.openembedded.dev.git;a=tree;f=packages/wlags-modules

(the .bb include the .inc file, which contains the sequence of 
the patches to be applied as well as the #define's to use. In 
the files/ directory are the patches).
