Enabling 802.11G mode via software. Really not possible ?

Post by KickinAezz »

While surfing through PSP docs, looking at this renewed my interest in 54G mode.
Wi-Fi

* Marvell Libertas 88W8010
o RF Transceiver
* Marvell Libertas 88W8380
o ARM9 Processor
o 802.11b(g)
o WEP and AES (802.11i ) hardware security engine.
o QoS (802.11e) Quality of Service.
It says the chips capable of 802.11g too.


I know this has been asked before but there was never a solid explanation nor reasoning behind any answers. [/quote]
Intrigued by PSP system Since December 2006.
Use it more for Development than for Gaming.

I remember reading somewhere that the 802.11g chip is separate, or is a different part of the chip that can't be accessed without rewiring. I'll post more info if I find it.
