 non-USB owners/​users (that is PCI/​PCMCIA/​MiniPCI/​etc based) needs to type in "lspci -nn" (without quotes) and look for the correct line that identifies the vendor or the make of the device. Once that has been identified the VendorID:​ProductID needs to be copied and pasted directly into google for further analysis of what other users have reported the PCI based device has. The VendorID:​ProductID goes in the form of XXXX:XXXX, that is where it needs to be copied and pasted into google. **N.B.: Some owners/​users may have tablet based computers "​built-in"​ with prism54 based chipset, your required firmware would be the ones for stlc4560. Examples of these cases maybe the Nokia N800/N810 devices.** ​ non-USB owners/​users (that is PCI/​PCMCIA/​MiniPCI/​etc based) needs to type in "lspci -nn" (without quotes) and look for the correct line that identifies the vendor or the make of the device.

-b) Identifying via FCC ID for the device. Most devices using radio frequencies usually have stickers/​imprints identifying their rights for use. Most of these stickers/​imprints will have FCC ID labelling on it which usually goes by the words "FCC ID: XXXXXXXXXXXX"​. The FCC has a website for one to enquire more information specifically for that device and this is also where it comes in handy for the alternative platform users whom wants to find out what sort of chipset is inside the device, etc without having to physically pull the device apart/​open. ​+b) Identifying via FCC ID for the device.

 USB owners/​users will find such labels on the physical device itself. It is normally a sticker that is on the outside of the physical device rather than the inside. Once the sticker/​label has been found you will need to copy that information and enter it in onto FCC website: [[https://​fjallfoss.fcc.gov/​oetcf/​eas/​reports/​GenericSearch.cfm|https://​fjallfoss.fcc.gov/​oetcf/​eas/​reports/​GenericSearch.cfm]]. Once the information has been entered in click "​submit"​ and click on "​detail"​ when the site presents a table. If your device has more than one entry in the table, look for the entry that has the words "​original equipment"​ printed on the same line as "​detail"​ and then click on "​detail"​. Upon the next table presented by the site click on "​internal photos",​ this word maybe slightly varied (i.e. shortened, capitalised) but the meaning should be the same. The site will then prompt you a pdf file in which you will need to examine the photos on the various pages and to see which chipset you have. USB second generation owners/​users may find their device internal photos denoted as GW3887 printed on the physical chip itself. ​ USB owners/​users will find such labels on the physical device itself.
