But i was checking on google and found this one: Netgear MA311 802.11b Wireless PCI Adapter I need a PCI card for my desktop wich runs FreeBSD I want to connect peer to peer 2 FreeBSD boxes at 1 mile from each other, (I want to try the pringles antennas as described in http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/weblog/view/wlg/448 I know there are Aironet PCI adapters but they are expensive, I want to try with cheaper hardware and the Netgear is cheaper in an order of maggnitude. Hope some one knows about this, if possible, or point me to the right list to ask. Thanks in advance. Eric De La Cruz Lugo Merida, Yucatan, Mexico. P.S. Sorry for my bad english. ---
