I have a DWL-650 and it cannot transmit even the most modest size files without freezing. I looked into the problem and I'm convinced there is some sort of bug in device (or its firmware).

Oh, and the problem goes away if you turn off WEP. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thomas skibo@ Skibo pacbell.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
