I'm using a Dlink DWL 650 which is a pci card in my freebsd 5.0 current test box, it works great, although you will have to fiddle with wicontrol abit, (assuming you use 5.0) as I had to use an option -p 0 for it to work, however the man file notes 1 and 3 are valid options.. Which did not work for me. I am unsure about 4.5 stable though, I believe someone ported the bsd airtools that were for 4.4 to 4.5, you will have to search the mailing list. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG] On Behalf Of FreeBSD MAIL Sent: Tuesday, April 16, 2002 4:43 AM To: freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: 802.11a PCI cards. I was wondering if any of the 802.11a PCI cards such as the one from Inetl or D-Link worked with FreeBSD in any form? I was also wondering if anyone had one of thease cards? Does the antenna come off? I want to hook up an external antenna to one and try a long distance point to point link. I noiced that in the picture on Intel's web site, the PCI card actually had a cable going from the back of the card to the antenna (looks very hackable). Thanks in advance for the help.
