Has anyone been successful with one of these cards and the ndisulator? I can get the wrapper to attach the device, but it won't accept an SSID being assigned via ifconfig (or anything else for that matter), and wpa_supplicant also fails. I've tried it with both UP and SMP kernels, to no avail. My main success has been in panicking my kernel! According to the ndiswrapper sourceforge project, some people have made this work with Linux... However they mention needing to patch your kernel 16k stacks, which I do not know how well this applies to FreeBSD. (http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/List#I) The relevant kernel messages from loading the module are: no match for NdisIMCopySendPerPacketInfo no match for strncat no match for KeQueryTickCount ndis0: <Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection> mem 0xffaff000-0xffafffff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci5 ndis0: NDIS API version: 5.1 ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ndis0: Ethernet address: 00:13:02:0a:cf:eb Initializing interface 'ndis0' conf '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' driver 'ndis' ctrl_interface 'N/A' Configuration file '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' -> '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' Reading configuration file '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' ctrl_interface='/var/run/wpa_supplicant' ctrl_interface_group=0 (from group name 'wheel') Priority group 0 id=0 ssid='linksys' Initializing interface (2) 'ndis0' EAPOL: SUPP_PAE entering state DISCONNECTED EAPOL: KEY_RX entering state NO_KEY_RECEIVE EAPOL: SUPP_BE entering state INITIALIZE EAP: EAP entering state DISABLED EAPOL: External notification - portEnabled=0 EAPOL: External notification - portValid=0 NDIS: Packet.dll version: FreeBSD WinPcap compatibility shim v1.0 NDIS: Failed to get adapter list (PacketGetAdapterNames) Failed to initialize driver interface Failed to add interface ndis0 Cancelling scan request ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called... ntoskrnl dummy called...
