I don't have any experience with their wireless solutions, but I do know that SMC makes a wonderful line of PCI NICs. I personally have a large number of their 9432TX cards in use right now. They do 10/100, they're cheap (I've gotten them in the brown box packaging for $5 each), and they use the tx driver under FreeBSD. Intel is a brand name that a lot of people on the list have had success with in the past. --- Andy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
