The good news is that my D-Link 650 works fine in my Toshiba Tecra 8000. The bad news is that a brand new RangeLAN-DS 8434 card does not. This is the 8434 version of the card; the JustDeals ones are 8433s, which don't have quite the qualities this one does (as shown on http://www.personaltelco.net/index.cgi/RangeLanDsComments). After "ifconfig": wi0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ether 00:60:b3:6f:56:d3 wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0021; event status 0x8000 wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear. (repeat until ^C) If I try "ifconfig inet 10.0.0.115 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid dontask", it does this: wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0000; event status 0x8000 wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear. wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear. wi0:init failed wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear. [repeat busy bit line many times] wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC wi0: tx buffer allocation failed wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear. wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC wi0: mgmt. buffer allocation failed Updating the firmware via a hellish Windows experience made no difference, although it did prove the card works under that system. Suggestions are welcome. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
