However, I noticed that using either the SS1012 or the > SMC8036TX which I am doing now is that there seems to be a lot of errors. Yes, it is a 200, actually, it is a PCMPC200 version 2. (The version number is down by the serial number though, not by the model number). I'm not really able to tell if I'm getting lots of errors with the SS card, but I prefer it to the LinkSys card since the SS card doesn't have a dongle and the dongle for the LinkSys card has a short in it. :) The only other cardbus NIC I have is a D-Link DFE-690TXD which uses a RealTek chip. It doesn't use a dongle, but it does periodically lock up the system. Ejecting the card unfreezes the system and I can insert it again, re-DHCP and everything is ok. A bit annoying though. :) -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
