Subject: Multicast on Wavelan NIC

We ran into problems in getting multicast running using if_wlp.c PAO driver in 
FreeBSD 2.2.6 and 2.2.7. The kernel compile is OK with a few bug fixes and 
with MULTICAST option set. 

One problem is that the driver freezes after the first multicast session, I 
tried it with MulticastClient and Server in Java tutorial.
Next problem is that it does not let more than one multicast client to run.

I also tried Jim Binkley's driver but this driver could not recognize PCMCIA 
card.
Does anyone have a working driver for the newest FreeBSD (2.2.7) that supports 
2.4GHz cards?

Maybe I should switch to Linux, Linux supports multicast just like Solaris.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you.
