A few weeks ago I tested the driver on FreeBSD 6.1, found that it didn't work (nobody had siad that it would work, either), and sent Damien a mail wirth my findings. In his reply, he stated that the wpi driver for FreeBSD was developed for his own personal use, and that he don't plan on any further development of this driver. He stated that he maintains the driver in OpenBSD. > and if so is anyone planning to continue his work? AFAIK, nobody has taken up the challenge. >If not then has anyone had any luck with the ndis > wrapper for this card yet as i occasionally have to kldunload the > firmware then the driver then reload the firmware. I have searched extensively, but so far haven't been able to find any success stories about ndis and the 3945. I would love to get the 3945 t work under FreeBSD. -- Regards, Torfinn Ingolfsen, Norway
