Re: port net/acx100 for usr5410 pcmcia wireless FBSD 6.3
Is your wireless network a non-authentication one, if it is wpa, wep, you may want to try follow the handbook[1]. I am not using rc.conf to start my wireless, but I think give the ssid in rc.conf may help, because there may be more wireless network in your area if it is a non-authentication one. ifconfig_ath0=ssid your_ssid_here DHCP After you give the ssid, what the ifconfig output? Does the status change to associate? If yes, you can try: #dhclient ndis0 to get the ip from DHCP.

Re: Propose for a PCMCIA wireless card for laptops
I have a Edimax EW-7108PCg that works great under Linux: ( http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=253490prodlist=nextag) The reason it works great is because Edimax is great at giving documentation to developers to write drivers for it. I found this for OpenBSD: http://m0n0.ch/wall/list/showmsg.php?id=147/83 Messages back from 2005 that the OpenBSD team had received drives for it. I didn't find anything right away for FreeBSD, but you might could find some confirmation with a little searching. Anyway, it is a great card, I got it at newegg for $25, but they don't seem to have it anymore. Zipzoomfly does though (link above) for $30 with a $5 MIR. Anyway, I know this isn't the absolute confirmation you probably hoped for, but at least it might give you a card with good potential to research a little more or try.

iburst / Kyocera PCMCIA wireless broadband
hi all, I have a Kyocera pcmcia card provided with the iBurst service from Ozemail (now Veritel) in Australia. Has anyone got this working under FreeBSD ? (running 6.1 here) When inserted, i get: May 16 16:18:47 ayiin kernel: pccard0: unknown card (manufacturer=0x02e3, product=0x0002, function_type=6) at function 0 May 16 16:18:47 ayiin kernel: pccard0:CIS info: Kyocera Corporation, Access Card The leds (it has 2, one for signal strength, one for 'firmware loaded' i believe) seem to indicate it has initialised correctly for a while, but hten go back to 'no signal'. I believe this card is supported under linux. thanks in advanced for any info - i'll be looking deeper into this soon and I'll share the results.

In linux I just compiled a kernel with modules for everything but the core devices to boot my machine, and did it just once per system. If I added a new device, I may have to change the kernel config, but I'd just have to compile a couple modules and load them, but didn't need to install a new kernel or even reboot.

Since this is your first time recompiling a kernel, you might consider the following advice: 1. Start with a copy of GENERIC. Since you're currently running it, you know it works. 2. Put additions at the bottom of the file so that you can find them easily. 3. When you comment out unused options or devices, comment them out with a combination of characters so that you can find/reverse your changes easily. For example, rather than simply add a '#' to the front of a line, you could add 2 #'s and your initials (in my case, that would be '##ag').

pcmcia wireless cards
Hi guys, I noticed that the hardware list for wireless interfaces are quite old. I'm thinking of buying a wlan pcmcia card, but it seems that the ones I can find around my area are not in the list. The nearest I can find is SMC 2635W (the one in the list is SMC 2632W). Anyone have tried this card before? Is it compatible? what about belkin cards? or Netgear MA521 that supports 821.1g? And have anyone tried Compaq WL400 wlan access point with freebsd yet? can you configure it from freebsd an not from windows? any replies would be appreciated.

Re: Belkin PCMCIA wireless card (F5D6020 ver. 2)
I am assuming this card is not supported? I did find this message on a linux newsgroup: Scott Waye [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To finish my own thread, it turns out that the new Belkin cards do indeed use a different chipset. It is supported under the atmelwlandriver.sourceforge.net project.

Re: PCMCIA wireless nic
Quoting Volker Kindermann [EMAIL PROTECTED]: AFAIK, the Netgear MA401 has an Intersil Prism 2 (or 2.5) chipset which is supported well. Since we are talking about wireless stuff (hehe) I want to ask if someone tried the bsd-airtools ? I wanted to check those tools because it's kinda interesting! I installed them and have to run it that way: dstumbler wi0 -o But apparently when it founds a network my laptop crashes :) (it goes in debug mode) I'm using 5.0... Any idea ?

Re: PCMCIA wireless nic
The last time I played with it on 4.7 it worked fine. What kind of card are you using? I was using a linksys wp11. You can also look at this, if you're interested in wireless sniffing. http://www.kismetwireless.net/ it works great, if you get it to work on Freebsd. I was only able to get it working half the times I tried to install it. - Original Message - From: Pierrick Brossin [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Volker Kindermann [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2003 6:49 AM Subject: Re: PCMCIA wireless nic Quoting Volker Kindermann [EMAIL PROTECTED]: AFAIK, the Netgear MA401 has an Intersil Prism 2 (or 2.5) chipset which is supported well.

PCMCIA wireless nic
Greetings- Recently i borrowed a Netgear MA401 PCMCIA 11Mbps nic from a friend. I put it into my Laptop to see if it would be recognized in BSD 4.7. Everything seemed ok, the wi0 driver loaded and it recognized the mac address. The only thing that went wrong was the led on the card was blinking green. I don't know if that is good or bad. I want to know if anyone out there has the same card and if there are any issues or not with BSD? thanks, brian ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The blinking led on my Cards (D-Link DWL650) is a sign that no network to connect to was found. Perhaps it's the same with your card but it would be safer to check the card's manual. -volker ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Putting the card in mode 3 / managed mode and then do: ifconfig wi0 ssid any should do the trick, assuming that there is a base station. Or replace ANY by the locale SSID (wireless network name).
