Please forgive the previous post with no subject. Can someone verify if Version 2 of this card actually works under 4.6 RELEASE? I have seen a number of references, but no success stories. I am running on a Toshiba 4100XDVD laptop. The card is discovered if I use this etc/pccard.conf entry card "SMC" "2632W-V2" config auto "wi" ? 0x10000 insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop But shortly after discovery, these messages appear. wi0 at port 0x240-0x27f irq 11 flags 0x10000 slot 0 on pccard0 wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0000; event status 0x0000 wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0000; event status 0x0000 wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0000; event status 0x0000 wi0: init failed wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0021; event status 0x0000 wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0021; event status 0x0000 wi0: mac read failed 5 device_probe_and_attach: wi0 attach returned 5 I have tried these alternate lines in pccard.conf with no better results. config 0x1 "wi" ? 0x10000 config 0x1 "wi" 5 0x10000 config auto "wi" 5 0x10000 config auto "wi" 10 0x10000 After each change I re-start pccardd via kill -s HUP Everything else about FreeBSD seems to be simply a matter of learning curve. This has me stopped, and without networking, it's mighty difficult to proceed. I borrowed a Linksys Instant Wireless card and worked just fine. Something changed in V2 of the SMC card. I am willing to loan the card to a developer for testing as I do not have the ability to resolve this myself.
