Unfortunately it happens that this card is a rev C2 model and, as I found later , this seem to not be correctly handled :( This is how the card is seen by the system: 00:13.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 rev B 802.11g Subsystem: D-Link System Inc DWL-G510 Rev C Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 255 Memory at f4800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2 Actually the if_ral module loads but it fails to associate: ral0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 ether 00:15:e9:b3:79:14 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (DS/1Mbps) status: no carrier ssid homenet channel 5 authmode OPEN privacy ON deftxkey 1 wepkey 1:40-bit wepkey 2:40-bit wepkey 3:40-bit wepkey 4:40-bit txpowmax 100 bmiss 7 protmode CTS bintval 100 it keeps searching for the channel (it changes every time I do an ifconfig ral0) I saw that someone has filed a bug report on it (kern/109227), but no progress so far. The bug reports stats that the cards works on FreeBSD 7.0, but as far as I tried it doesn't work for me. I tried with ndisgen too without success. The cards comes up but It doesn't associate. Does anyone have any hint? Thanks in advance Andrea.
