Hi,
I am able to see the wlan0 connection in the output of iwconfig but wlan fails to start and set an ip address.
IWCONFIG output

lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.

Since the firmware updation needs to be done for the dongle, please could anyone provide me pointers on how to go about this in updating the rt2870.bin file.
Any other pointers would be helpful.
Thanks and Regards,
