ASIX USB to Ethernet

Hi, just a quick reply

The line above says your device id should be:

USB_ROM(0x17ef, 0x7203, "asix", "Lenovo U2L 100-Y1", 0),

In the ipxe/src/drivers/usb/net/usb/asix.c source code file.

The USB_ROM strings are used to "recognize" a device that is connected to the USB host controller.

I tried making the following change by myself to src/drivers/net/usb/asix.c

Code:

static struct usb_device_id asix_88772_ids[] = {
        USB_ROM(0x2001, 0x3c05, "asix", "DLink DUB-E100", 0),
        USB_ROM(0x0b95, 0x772a, "asix", "ASIX AX88772A", 0),
        USB_ROM(0x17ef, 0x7203, "asix", "Lenovo U2L 100-Y1", 0),
};

Maybe I added the string to a wrong place or something else also needs changes, but with this modification I still got same results. I+ ll take a look at this again later.

By the way here's another asix adapter for you from my colleques desk
