Be careful, I bought one of those last week, and it was based upon a Texas Instrument chipset instead of an Atheros. So it was completly useless to me. .f -----Original Message----- From: h0444lp6 [mailto:h0444lp6@student.hu-berlin.de] Sent: den 5 februari 2004 15:26 To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org; freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Subject: Netgear WG311 & ASUS P2L97-S Dear list, I plan to build an FreeBSD AP with a Netgear WG311 Wireless Card. The Spec lists as system requirements a "PCI 2.2 compliant" slot. Unfortunately the M/B I plan to use (ASUS P2L97-S) list only 2.1 compliancy. Does someone have experience with the Netgear in a PCI 2.1 slot ... does it work, too. If yes, are there drawbacks. If no, which 802.11g card will work in a PCI 2.1 slot (e.g. D-Links DWL-G520 doesn't list the need of PCI 2.2). TIA Zheyu P.S.: netgear datasheet: http://www.hu-berlin.de/~h0444lp6/WG311T_datasheet_14Jan2004.pdf m/b manual: http://www.hu-berlin.de/~h0444lp6/p2l97-s-201.pdf _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
