From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ralink Technology, Corp. is a Taiwanese Wi-Fi chipset manufacturer which claims to have 10% of the WLAN chipset market worldwide. They are one of the few Wi-Fi chipset manufacturers that provide documentation without a non-disclosure agreement, and the unrestricted right to redistribute and use the firmwares for their products. Because of this their devices are well supported by open source drivers, making them a favourable choice for Linux and BSD users. While the early version products (RT2400 and RT2500) were considered to be unstable and buggy[citation needed], newer products such as the RT2501 and RT2600 have improved greatly. Their chipsets are used by almost every wireless manufacturer for routers, and PCI/Mini PCI/Cardbus/USB adaptors. An example is Nintendo's Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector which uses the Ralink RT2500USB to allow Nintendo DSs and Wiis to connect to the Internet via the USB device and a home computer running Windows XP, Linux or OpenBSD.
