I'm curious about getting my RTL8187 WLAN Usb device to work under freebsd. Has anyone got a rtl8187 based wlan stick working with freebsd? As far I know ndisgen won't work because it does not support usb devices. When I install the windows drivers via ndisgen , there are kernel error messages reported. FreeBSD detects the device when I initially plug it in, but nothing more becomes of that. There are debian / linux drivers available for this device, however I know nothing about porting linux drivers to FreeBSD, nor do I really want to wipe my laptop and put debian on it ;) Any advice regarding these drivers being already available or ported somewhere, or perhaps any advice for someone to help facilitate the driver being ported would be greatly appreciated! Thanks , Kevin K.
