The 11mb cards give weird errors (oversize packet recieved) on the 3.4ish
stuff (Looks like it's been patched since then) but seem to work great on
the 4.1 stuff.

I have a floppy-based picobsd derived router/nat box solution I'm selling
which is 3.4 based.   I have about 30-40 of them out there with wireless
cards as the internet-facing interface and they work great.

(That's what I'm connected with right now)
