Searching the mailing lists, I've found messages indicating that NetGear
recently switched chipsets on this card. Accordiing to those messages,
the old ones work but the new ones do not. Ditto for LinkSys cards.

Rather than play mail order roulette, I'm looking for something that's
likely to work for sure! Does anyone know if the D-Link DFE-530TX works
under FreeBSD?
