The regular wavelan cards you buy work well with it. I happen to have a Mac around to configure it, but I understand that the Karlbridge software for Windoze will configure it as well (except for some features such as the modem dialout). I currently have linux on my laptop and it works well with the wavelan. I suspect the wavelan driver for FreeBSD works just as well. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D. Khera Communications, Inc.
