I'm up to build a little Wi-Fi network at my home. So I need to know, what
Wi-Fi NIC is working better under FreeBSD 7.1, from the next little list:
ZyXEL G-302 EE
D-link DWA-510
ASUS WL-138g V2
TRENDnet TEW-423PI
P.S. Digging the "7.1 Hardware Notes" on the Web gave me no information about
that cards. Please note me if they are supported at all.

This depends on the card chipset. It's sometimes hard to tell by the
card model and I don't
know which chipsets these cards have.
I used two cards with chipsets: Atheros 5212 (ath) and Ralink Technology
RT2561S (ral).
Both of them don't work in a stable way under 71-PRERELEASE and in a
very similar way.
Connections get broken, link goes down sporadically. 'up scan' hangs,
pings often don't go
through after link is established, 'airdump' command stops working after
a while on both
of them.
Based on these experiences i came to a conclusion that WiFi support
isn't stable yet in FreeBSD.
