To avoid putting cables all over the house (our NTBA is in the basement, my parents' pc is in the first story, mine in the second) we consider getting a hardware router* with WLAN. These typically use small USB-adapters to connect to the pc. Has anyone experience with these under FreeBSD? Do they work at all? Or is this vendor-dependent? Any models or vendors you can recommend? Thanks in advance, Benjamin * Unfortunately I do not have a spare pc to use as router/firewall... - -- Benjamin Walkenhorst eMail: krylon@gmx.net homepage: http://www.krylon.de -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Public Key available at http://www.krylon.de iD8DBQE/QmRjoYumWdMvhMQRAndNAJ90mAZrsEmBUjb73FlALPAk9CSnXwCfSEUT 5GrLAjZZiFb1+4+YN4oQVfo= =W18L -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
