I want to buy a wireless PCI adapter for a machine running FreeBSD 6.0. After reading the archives, man pages, etc. I realized that his is a tricky business. Some of the adaptors listed as supported have now a different chipset. For example, Netgear WG311T now has the AR5002G chipset and I guess this means it is no longer supported by the ath(4) driver. If you bought recently a wireless PCI adapter in the price range of the Netgear WG311T (less than $50) that was supported by the FreeBSD drivers (not the ndis wrapper), could you give me a shout? Thanks a lot!
I'm not sure why you tihnk the AR5002G is not supported. The hal currently in cvs for freebsd 6.0 and later systems supports all parts except the very latest ones (AR5006 I believe is the tag).
