Unfortunately, the Intel 4965AGN wireless card it came with isn't supported (yet). I tried to use ndisgen, but it caused a panic (both 6.2 and 7.0-current). Since I'd like to continue using FreeBSD as my desktop (laptop) OS, and need wireless access, I've decided to pick up a temporary PCMCIA wireless card in the meantime. Could someone recommend a good (and cheap) one that's includes a/b/g*/n and is supported, either natively or via ndis? thanks in advance... don
