I have been trying (quite unsuccessfully) to get my Teletronics/Senao NL-2500CD+ radio cards running on a Soekris net4521 to work under FreeBSD (M0n0wall and WiFiBSD). M0n0 uses ver. 4.9 while WiFi used 5.2-current. I get strong radio signal, but no connections. I have tried just about every setting available, but no joy. I have been told on other lists that the problem is with the firmware version on the cards. I flashed them some time back with firmware v.1.7.4. I have been told that only v. 1.5.6 and earler work with FreeBSD. That sounded rather strange since the same cards work just fine under Linux on the very same hardware. Can there be THAT much difference between the drivers in Freebsd and Linux? If what I have been told is correct, is it possible to re-flash the cards with the earlier firmware version or is that a no-no? I would like to use a Freebsd-based system on my router at the church without having to opt for the newer Atheros-based cards just now (which does work well).
