For the purpose, I'm going to use a 32-bit Cardbus/PCI adapter and I think this will make the device look like a regular PCI device to freeBSD kernel (example the "an" driver using the PCI shim , by Bill Paul). What I'm wondering about is whether this scenario will work or not? Does the adapter scenario for Cardbus work? Or do we necessarily need 16 bit PCCard support on the WLAN card? I need to know this very urgently and will be grateful for advice.
