Hi there,
I have tried both Netgear A6210 & TP-LINK Archer T2UH using a few different sources from git hub. All of them fail at *make* command.
This is a common error for some sources: IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS??? undeclared here (not in a function)
I am clutching at straws here but is there a library that I am missing is needed?
I am CentOS 7 / 3.10.0-514.16.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Apr 12 15:04:24 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Thanks

This looks more like a version missmatch, ie the driver code is for a different kernel, a missing library is more likely to produce an error like "undeclared here first use of a function". Kernel version miss match when compiling external drivers can produce some very difficult to trace errors. External open source drivers will always be for a particuler kernel or series of kernels as the Linux kernel does not garruntee source level compatibilty in drivers over differnt kernel versions.

Running find/grep over all Linux source trees on my system shows IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS is defined and used in the following kernels: linux-3.0 linux-3.10.4 linux-3.11.4 linux-3.12.6 linux-3.13.9 linux-3.14 linux-3.15.2 linux-3.15.5 linux-3.16.1 linux-3.17 linux-3.17.4 linux-3.18.0 linux-3.19.0 linux-3.2.1 linux-3.2.7 linux-3.2.9 linux-3.3 linux-3.4.2 linux-3.5.4 linux-3.6.9 linux-3.7.3 linux-3.8.7 linux-4.0.0 linux-4.1.0 linux-4.1.2 linux-4.2.0 linux-4.3.3 linux-4.4.0 linux-4.4.14 linux-4.4.4 linux-4.4.5 linux-4.4.6 linux-4.5.0 linux-4.5.1 linux-4.5.2 linux-4.6.0 I do have linux-4.7.0 so I guess it disappeared then, Cheers ...
