I had to go back to 4.3-RELEASE to get it to work (actually, I CVSUPed to RELENG_4_3, which is -RELEASE with security patches added). If you don't already own one of the cards, though, you might want to hold off on rushing out to buy one until someone confirms that it works. You could also install -STABLE and then replace the wi driver source with the -RELEASE source. In any case, use the wi driver. /defaults/pccard.conf is probably already configured to recognize the card. I don't have a 4.3 system handy to check. Use wicontrol to configure the card. I have not been able to get encryption working. If you do, please let me know. I'm rather limited in how I can use my card without encryption, and I'm about ready to go buy another brand if that's what it takes. - Bob > Gabriel > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
