The card is neatly reckognised (kldload if_ath0) But when I do a "ifconfig ath0 sssid my_net media autoselect mode 11g mediaopt hostap channel 1 up" I get this error on screen: ath0: stuck beacon: resetting (bmiss count 4) So I guess I must be doing something wrong here. I'm trying to get the card in accesspoint mode and I want it bridged (by if_bridge), but maybe this is not supported with this card? I have no wireless router. My server is cabled (and now wireless too). The server runs fbsd-6.0 (waiting for 6.1-R to update) Any pointers, hints? Can this card be an accesspoint? If not, I guess I have to set it up as a seperate wifi internal lancard and change pf, ipnat, dhcpd and named to listen and work with this adapter too? -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 6.0 +++ The Power to Serve
