I'm looking at trying to get a new WG311 Netgear wifi adapter working, and have discovered that the v2 cards use the Texas Instruments chipset. From what I understand, I need to get this working with the NDIS support in FreeBSD 5.3. Is there a good document out there on how to get this working? I've been farting around with the man pages and can't seem to get things right.
Thanks for the help.

I used the man page and it was pretty easy, I just used the man page for the command syntax and what files I would need. Didn't have to read much beyond that, but I did anyway.
Well, here's what I've done so far:
1) Copied the netwg311.sys and wg311v2.inf files frome the Windows 2000 folder from the distribution CD-ROM.
2) Ran ndiscvt -i /home/ecrist/wg311v2.inf -s /home/ecrist/netwg311.sys -o ndis_driver_data.h as root
3) Copied ndis_driver_data.h to the /usr/src/sys directory.
4) Added the following lines to my custom kernel config (GROG)
options NDISAPO
device ndis5) Ran (from /usr/src) make buildkernel KERNCONF=GROG
6) Ran (from /usr/src) make installkernel KERNCONF=GROG
7) Rebooted (no ndis0 listing in ifconfig output)
Any idea what I did wrong?
Thanks. _______________________________________________________ Eric F Crist "I am so smart, S.M.R.T!" Secure Computing Networks -Homer J Simpson
