Hello all, I am planning to build my own FreeBSD server for storage. The main connectivity will be over gigabit ethernet, however I also need wireless connectivity.
I habe checked the hardware compatibility list of the FreeBSD 9 release and found various chipsets and drivers for PCIe mini, but it seems hard to find a robust PCI-E card with the following requirements: 1. 802.11n support (300 Mb/s) 2. Ideally a standard size PCIe card, not a PCIe mini (how good are the adaptors to convert PCIe mini to PCIe? Would that work, too?) 3. Furthermore a dual band support for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz would be desirable. And of course it should work under FreeBSD. Are there any recommendations? I know that point 3 is not that easy. I have seen on the homepages, that there is active driver development for the ath9k chipset family in progress, but I cannot judge how stable it is. Thanks for your help Thomas_______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
