Making it Work/Digital Support

I think the last step is a little vague/confusing, but I want to make sure I'm not missing something instead of just editing the page.

Instead of saying:

• Installing this firmware is all that is needed.

I think the exact steps are:

wget http://www.steventoth.net/linux/hvr22xx/firmwares/4019072/NXP7164-2010-03-10.1.fw
sudo cp NXP7164-2010-03-10.1.fw /lib/firmware

At least, that's what I had to do to make this work, but I'm no expert. The way it was written, I wasn't sure if that file was already downloaded, or if it was already installed in the previous steps. I assumed it had been done already, but I saw "Direct firmware load for NXP7164-2010-03-10.1.fw failed with error -2" in dmesg until I ran those two commands.
