Do you mean by vendors, or do you mean for FreeBSD drivers? I believe several of the 802.11b drivers work with 802.11a devices, and there was at least one 802.11a specific driver that was posted about (check the -current archives). As far as vendors go, there's not a lot of progress. It's rather like BlueTooth: IBM pushes the heck out of it, but neglects to build it into the ThinkPad laptops, the Palm PDAs, or the Lexmark printers that it itself manufactures. It's a good idea -- for everyone else to do first -- it seems. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
