That's easy enough to add. I assume it's just a boolean or integer parameter? The interface supports 2^16-1 options so it's not going to be a real problem to add more. You just add a new #define at the end if sys/net/if_ieee80211.h and and entry in share/man/man4/ieee80211.4 describing what the heck it does. The interface also needs more status gathering functions to get signal strenght and the like for GUI tools. -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
