The guys at http://www.942wavelan.com/ sell them. If you search the archives someone mentions that the Cabletron Wavepoints appear to just be rebadged Lucent cards. They actually appear to be a bit cheaper then the Lucent ones. Finaly, I seem to recall seeing Bill Paul commenting that he was working on a Aironet driver which would be cool since they are 802.11 compatiable and support 11Mbps instead of just 2 or 6Mbps like the WaveLANs. Some linux people have bad things to say about Arionet so it may be that Bill hit some of the same problems. -- Brooks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
