At least, as far as I can tell. Especially if you're leering towards the new chipsets as I am. Alas, my CATV pipelet is a bit shaky right now so can't check. The chipset I'm talking about I found through the OpenBSD site, though. Very promising. Even though they're not real quick about answering email enquiries. Wow! Contact. It's the "Broadcom BCM5805 (or beta chip Bluesteelnet 5501)" I'm referring to. See also http://www.bluesteelnet.com/product.html. Roelof -- Home is where the (@) http://eboa.com/ is.
