Hi,

I have some Laptops with a Qualcomm Atheros AR8161 (PCI ID 1969:1091) ethernet controller.
I can't get iPXE (current git) to recognize these.
Is it unsupported or should I look for other errors with my setup?
Which iPXE binary are you using, and how do you start it?
for example, ipxe.efi from USB, or undionly.kpxe chained via NIC PXE stack.

The only native Atheros driver is atl1e
but that does not have 1091

searching the net for your device and linux is no happy sight eighter.

using snponly.efi or undionly.kpxe via chainloading, should hopefully work tho.
