Initially I bought a D-Link G520+ WLAN card without checking the support = and later found that it is not supported under FreeBSD although I have plans = to try and change this ;-). I am now trying a Q-Tec 774WP WLAN card which is actually a RTL 8180L chi= pset. This also seems to be unsupported? Has anyone had this card work for them= ? pciconf -lv shows: Class=3D0x020000 Card=3D0x818010ec Chip=3D0x818010ec rev=3D0x20 hdr=3D0x0 RTL 8180L IEEE 802.11b Wireless Mac and broadband processor Above all else I would like to get a wireless network between two FeeBSD2= .1 machines working ASAP. One will act as an Gateway to a wired Ethernet. Can someone please recommend a 54mbps or even better a 108mbps card that = will definetly work with FreeBSD 5.2.1. Cost is also somewhat of a concern. Thanks Adam. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
