I've found a topic on forum from last year and that's much about it. I have a small pc (itx based) and no pci slot usable so I'd like to have an ap based on freebsd and usb nic. its basically for internet on one or two notebooks, so if it works 11Mbps is fine if its stable on it. I've read about atheros based, but the man fro uath doesn't say hostap mode. I found it on ural but most adaptors listed there are somwhat old an discontinued from theirs manufacturers. so I ask here ... of course ther cheaper the better, but I would pay a little more if it is known to work really good. I have atheros based pci on another pc and it is really good for me. just for thre record, this will be used in pfSense 2.0 (FreeBSD 8 based), but may also run FreeBSD 8 itself, and with another usb lan nic. thanks, matheus -- We will call you Cygnus, The God of balance you shall be A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
