I agree. I've have limited success in making things work better with newer firmware. I almost thought I had it figured out then after a long time my test machine locked up. So that victory was short lived. I also have MIC started and the HW bits interfaced I do not have the encryption part tied it. That looks to be more of a challenge then I thought ... or that I haven't been inspired enough. I'm not sure if Sam's new stuff does MIC or not. If it does I might be able to tie into that. To be fair I haven't spent enough time on it due to other bugs that have popped up at work with FreeBSD. Doug A.
