Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. >=20 While I can't answer the question directly, I can tell you that I've been struggling with this same card under 5.1 and 5.2-RC, and haven't found a=20 solution. On a linux list, I found a note where someone said that LinkSys makes two very different cards, and calls both of them WMP11. (One is type 3 and one is type 4.) My guess is that only one of these is supported by FreeBSD (or linux, for that matter). Hopefully, someone on this list, or freebsd-mobile, where I'm copying this reply, will have a more authoritative answer.
