Wavelan Orinoco...Silver (with the ISA bridge)

I would like to know how but ...do you really mean that the fbsd box is
acting a base station with the wavelan card in *infrastructure* mode or
do you mean that the box operates in ad-hoc (peer to peer ) mode. Adhoc
mode is very easy...what I want is to have the fbsd base station act as
an access point where _many_  clients can associate....not just one....

so which of the two does the fbsd "wavelan BS" do ...adhoc mode (peer to
peer connection ) or infrastructure mode...???

If it works in ad-hoc mode the PCF and DCF functions are not really
happening...which is what a BS is all about...

Don't you agree?   (or anyone else)
