Hi Im looking for help and some more info on the subject. the only post i found is from april 2008 the post suggests to add the capability to the driver based on or copy from a different WiFi NIC driver and it is not working still same error the NIC hangs in a way ifconfig show IP address the and status = associated, a simple ping to the router works with intermittent failures in the form of "sento: Network is down" and than it hangs usualy afte the 15th packet send... a restart the NIC device with "/etc/rc.d/netif restart" will cause the system to reboot! the driver version comes with the ISO DVD is v1.72, so I was looking for a new version on the FreeBSD VCS and there is a rev 1.82 posted March 2012 but this one fail the make on line 437 " assignment from incompatible pointer type" ??? is it due to the move away from gcc??? thanks for the time and help Yuvalhome | help
