Hello,

are you using the latest 30.9?
or this git branch:

git://dev.lemote.com/rt4ls.git linux-loongson/2.6.30/stable

I will check it asap. thanks!

did you try:

$ echo 1 > /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/state

and

$ echo 0 > /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/state

It may help to enable/disable the wireless~~

if you want to enable it when booting, add the first line into
/etc/rc.local or something else which is executed when booting.
