Hey, Thanks for the reply! Should I go for the SiteCom one? I only included it on the list because there are really few available PCI wireless cards around here; I didn't see it listed on man wi. Belkin is there (different model) and SMC is there (also a different model). Can you grant me SiteCom's one will correctly be detected and be able to work as a hostap on FreeBSD 5.3 ?
