    Launch of new Wi-Fi USB devices on 9x

    in Windows 9x Member Projects

    Posted · Edited by MERCURY127

    today i insert in my second comp (which p3) old (96/98 year) Intel PCI 100M Ethernet card. special for tests... 

    at first, i run test toool PCATTCP on p3 with 100M PCI card working under 98, and realtek 150M wifi on Core i7 under 7. traffic run via Zyxel Keeenetic DSL router (4x 100M ports and 300 Mbiit wifi).

    i get that results: 94 Mbits when "pcattcp -u -t" runned on i7 (UPload from i7, i7 is generate traffic, limited 100M PCI card on p3) and 66 Mbits in revert direction (pcattcp -s -c runned on i7, DOWNload to i7, p3 generate traffic, limited p3 performance?). its matched to 10/7 Mbytes/sec... here is UDP test, in TCP mode results is lower.

    after this, i repeat test with ralink wifi on i7 under 98 (i now can run usb on i7 with 98 using wdmstub, nusb and usbhub20 from 2k/xp, mouse, flash and wifi now work relative good, but glicerol periodially appear again)... i get 24/66 (yes, again 66 downlink for ralink dongle, with 98 on both ends) Mbits in UDP mode between two 98 systems. on screen is i7 machine with uplink (outgoing) test.

    2017-01-20_125550.1484920991.png

    but as seen, UPlink for our ralink wifi on 98 is much less then maximum... limited by 98? but on second machine with PCI ethernet we seen stable 66, and even more, 94 mbit!

    after this i run pcattcp -u -c -t on p3 (infinity traffic generation from p3 to i7 at 66 mbit speed) and fast (3-5 seconds) get bsod on i7 (where used our unfficial ralink with 98)...  

    so i think, this ralink driver have some little incompatibilities with 98 (obviously, cap? :D), but in general - work very good!

    This may or may not be related to the speed "limit"

    i think, that no... my ralink work now good and give 250 kbytes stable.

    I don't use WiFi very much so I don't know if this is normal or not.

    yes, its normal. wifi, bluetooth, cell modems, other high frequency radiodevices - all they relative hot when intensive used. but they not be to smoke or smell :D

    Aren't LAN/WiFi speeds under 98SE slow in general?

    no. win9x (and win3x also) network perf in general havent big diffs between other os. 

    today my ralink is VERY GOOD work! VERY. today i havent anything problems with speed!!!

    i can run all tests. uplink match my adsl tariff - exactly as in my win7/2k... look on screen 

    2017-01-11_142214.1484138129.png

    its was uoload test. now look on download. i cant run iperf3 on 9x for downlink test, so here present only ftp download. 

    2017-01-11_150648.1484138411.png

    its kbytes, not kbites. its good speed - i first time see such wifi speed on 9x. 

    but yeasterday iperf and other tests just not work. i does not changes on my configuration. 

    possible today Alpha Centaury's activity is low, and this help work my wifi :D

    i possible found main problem.
    when i test speed on 2k, OUTGOING speed is high - its match my UPLINK, 1.5 mbit, hundreds packets per sec, as show Odyssey.
    but when i do test on 98, OUTGOING speed is low, very low - one-two packet per 10-20 sec!!!
    why???
    =====
    it all was about iperf test. this test just stay w/o any progress. one time after manual abort it show me speed 4 bit (not kbit!) / sec.
    but if i try connect to http or ftp site - i can download with speed 30-40 kbytes / sec. packets in Qdyssey runs at hundreds per sec...
    very strange wifi under 98... :wacko:

    Have a little problem... Netcps speed test give max 800 000 bytes / sec. This match closest standart speed 6.5 Mbod 

    40da70f4-4b3f-4a22-826d-d29e320a0099.jpg 

    but with 7/xp this device work at link 150 mbod. Why it is not connecting at 150 on 9x? I use usb2 port. when i test ordinal 10 mbit pci ethernet card, i get 2000 kbytes / sec, so this is not limit of my p3 machine. 

    Have any ideas?

    maybe, but on 2k this rtwlanu_xp.sys is not work also - code 31. i will find other versions rtwlanu..
    =====
    tried with 2k three diff versions of rtwlanu.sys. two - latest (5 mb size, 2016) and oldest (1 mb, 2012) give code 31. third (2012, released three month later) - bsod. its first time, when i see BSOD on 2k...

    here i write, that buy on aliexpress new wifi dongle, how say seller, based on rtl8188... its was delivered today, and i do some tests...

    it's vid/pid is USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8179 (rtl8192eus), first founded product with match - TP-Link TL-WN725N Ver 2...

    i get driver from TP Link. checked it on my win7, and it work. driver file is rtwlanu*.sys, not rtl8192su.sys, how i think. minimal wersion windows, that req in inf file, is XP. here is no 2K version. rtl8192su.sys is not work with this device absolutely.

    rtwlanu.sys not req any unimplemented functions. i will try run it on 2k and me... but i have no hope. on 98 i already have code 2.

    Hello! I many times try run my usb wifi dongle in 9x, and now, after four years owning this device, i can say - it work! 

    u can look on my screenshots: 

    Spoiler

    in this post i want say, how u can do it for our devices... post will periodically updating. 

    ===== 

    what need having for experiments: 

    WDMEX from rloew. i am sorrry, but w/o this u need yourself implement one stupid function - NdisInitializeString. W/o this function driver RT2870.SYS (and many other drivers for 2k/xp) is just not starting - we see error code 2 or 10 in DM. 

    So i assume, that u have implementation of NdisInitializeString. if so, can continue. 

    one NdisInitializeString is not enuogh. driver req some other imports, which i can close old good WDMSTUB. 

    after this, i check in debugger, that driver loaded w/o errors, and try using it with help Odyssey, but w/o good results. adapter was present in DM, but not present in Network Properties. then i try ME, and immediately get results! i connect to my router and can out in Internet. 

    but on 98 it not work. Sweetlow say me, that support NDIS5 in 9x is poor, and recommend use NDIS3. i try, and all success. 

    here i attach my work inf file for Ralink driver version 3.01.08.0000 date 27.Dec.2010. this driver work with Odyssey 4.52 and WPA2 AES. Most new version 5.01.25.0 from official site can not connect... 

    this inf req UR work. U MUST manually add into VID/PID for our device!

    There are no drivers for 9x for this WiFi chipset Only for Win2K and newer...

    There are drivers for 9x for the RTL8187 chipset. Looks like you bought a wrong one, sorry

    yes, i know. its not error. i want try run 2k drivers... :D if you do not try, then nothing new is discovered. but if try - so at least some sort of hope.

    RTL8187 (and RT2680) - not USB devices, mostly mPCI/PCIe. I have no slots to insert them...

    If anyone can obtain and provide the debug symbols (HDAUDBUS.PDB) for KB888111 and/or KB835221 for Windows 2000

    possble in XP DDK? or VS 2005? 

    ====- 

    i run Wifi (with my usb dongle, based on RT5370) with Odyssey Client Manager! 150 Mbps WPA2/AES mode. 

    12426666.png ]

    and also install VBEMP NT version. look and work perfectly. but IE6 + 2K is absolutely non-suitable for MSFN, Google, and even Yandex... :D Good look only Ru-Board - its open normally even on 98SE with IE5 and IE3/ Opera 3 on Wfwg... 

    month back i buy on Aliexpress usb wifi based on RTL8188... so as suggest, that it can run on 9x. or no? :D check, when will delivered...
