Hi, By its description, this mailing list seems to be rather technical in nature and my question is - depending on how one sees it - quasi technical or at least too specific as I think for the standard user mailing list, so I'm just giving it a try here... Since I've run into problems getting an ndisgen generated driver for my Realtek RTL8185 54M to work on my FreeBSD 8.2 (i386) system - kldload on the driver generates a permanent kernel crash-, I am currently thinking about buying the NetGear WG511T PCMCIA bus driven card. I would like to ask if there are any users on this list that make use of this card and that can confirm whether or not this cards works fine alongside with WPA on 8.2 or 9.0 if I decide to upgrade? I am aware of the supported hardware list. The card in discussion is not listed as supported. However, this could still be the case, since I read in an older 7.0 related thread http://www.daemonforums.org/showthread.php?t=1424 that it did work, at least at one point in time. Thanks
