You'll also need the special HAL that hasn't yet been commited to -CURRENT. There are instructions on the freebsd-wireless mailing list. I'm using that exact card right now. Run `pciconf -lv` and you should see it, but there's no driver in 9.1. On 4/10/2013 3:39 PM, leeoliveshackelford@surewest.net wrote: > Good afternoon, dear FreeBSd enthusiasts. Is there anyone who has attempted to install a TP-LINK TL-WDN4800 p.c.i.-express wireless network interface card? I am using FreeBSD 9.1 on a Hewlett-Packard xw4400 workstation. The card works perfectly under Windows XP. However, it seems that the FreeBSD operating system does not even recognize the existence of the device; at least, I cannot find any mention of it in the dmesg.boot file. Any and all comments or suggestions will be appreciated. Also, many thanks to those of you who have responded to my previous inquiries.
