I have been using a Linksys Eterfast 10/100 USB ethernet adapter for a couple of weeks on my laptop (4-STABLE from mid-August) with pretty good success, but the speed is poor. With a 16 bit PCMCIA card (Netgear FA410) I could get 11Mbps or so peak, whereas I get about 1/3 that with the USB adapter (just a shade over 4 Mbps) each on the same 100Mbps network. I also get panics if I leave the adapter plugged in when I shutdown, but I don't know whether that's fixed in a later update or not. -- Jon Hamilton hamilton@pobox.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
