I would suggest testing against the latest 8-stable, as it looks like everything in iwn(4) has been MFC'ed at this point. I have cc'ed Bernhard so that he might correct any of my suppositions, as I do not have this exact hardware. You might want to try 8.1 Beta 1 images as a test point, as it looks like they are in the process of propagating to at least some of the mirrors. > Alternatively, are there any 802.11 expresscard adapters (the laptop unde= r > consideration has only expresscard slots...) =A0that are known to work wi= th > freebsd, or would I be better off just going with USB? I found the D-Link DWA-643 (rev A1) expresscard to work well with the ath(4) driver. Just do not expect hotswap to work for any expresscard at this point. Good Luck --_Dave
