X-BeenThere: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Mobile computing with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 26 Feb 2008 22:28:26 -0000 I recently upgraded my laptop from an old acer model running linux w/ a sierra AirCard 860 pcmcia cellular modem (which has semi-official linux support) to a nice shiny new Asus c90s built from barebones running, of course, FreeBSD (7.0). This is a wonderful configuration, except instead of a PCMCIA card slot, it's got an express card slot, meaning I need to get a new cellular modem. What USB or (preferably) express card cellular modems are supported? I'm looking for something with HSDPA support in particular, and an external antenna connector is always a plus. Also, is there a way to check if my (empty) express card slot is properly detected and supported by FreeBSD?
