Well, the problem is that when I use this WaveLAN card with a RedHat 6.2, tcpdump prints lines for the packets that are transmitted or received from the WaveLAN interface. But with FreeBSD 3.2, this doesn't happen. Anyway, do you think I won't be able to get tcpdump's output related to the WaveLAN interface with FreeBSD 3.2?
