The problems goes all the way back to Intersil on this one as they are
the one developing the firmware. We are doing EVERYTHING in out power to
add this functionality but WISP are a small spec on there radar, they
are moving very slow on this.
>From what Doug wrote on his last email even they are seeing the same
issues.

Tony, you need to put pressure on the manufacturer of the PRISM 2.5
cards to get the firmware problem with TC corrected. If you don't then
both Dan and I are holding some fairly crippled hardware we bought from
you in good
faith. This is a serious issue both for Dan, I and your reputation.
You
need to clear this problem forthwith.
Just my opinion,
Norm
