I bought the wireless card because it is listed on the hardware compatibility list. Unfortunately there appears they ship at least two different flavors of the Atheros chip in the WG511T and the one I bought has an AR5213 chip which is not compatible with Freebsd :( I tried the ndis approach but am getting the following error when I run ndiscvt: m700bsd# ndiscvt -i netw511.inf -s wg511nd5.sys -o ndis_driver_data.h ndiscvt: line 234: "D:ARAI(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;SY)(A;CI;GA;;;IU)": syntax error. An suggestions on how I can get the WG511T to work? Thanks. __________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - Make it your home page! http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs
