I have an old Compaq Presario 1692 that my sister-in-law gave to me after she upgraded. I installed FreeBSD 6.1 and everything is working fine. However, the laptop also came with a Belkin Wireless G (F5D7011) notebook card, and I would like to learn how to install the appropriate drivers for the card to work. I am new to FreeBSD, and have glanced at the Handbook section dealing with wireless. It's a little daunting at this time, and I haven't yet been able to make sense out of it with respect to this laptop and wireless card. Any help in making the process understandable would be much appreciated. Rem
