Hello
Just recently upgraded to 8.1 and installed the 'urtw' driver for my Netgear
WG111v3 USB WLAN card. All fine, systems boots, WLAN card gets IP address,
network runs. And then suddenly network connection breaks down. And never
recovers. Only reboot helps.
Apparently the WLAN connection
Hello
Would anyone recommend a PCIe WLAN card for 8.1? It is for a production machine
so stability is of prime importance.
Honestly, a bit confused what HW to pick after going through 'Hardware Matrix'
at 'https://wiki.freebsd.org/dev/ath_hal%284%29/HardwareSupport'.
I do not want to upgrade t
Thanks, any particular HW that you would recommend? Do not mind if it is not
the fastest with the latest features though want 'zero' network outage.
I believe there were cards you plugged in and you were happy with. Which card
has which chipset is not always obvious on the major shopping sites.
Hi
Hardware notes are fairly succinct about particular hardware for the 'ath'
driver:
3.5 Wireless Network Interfaces
[i386,pc98,amd64,sparc64] The
ath(4) driver
supports all Atheros Cardbus and PCI cards, except those that are based on the
AR5005VL
chipset.
For other drivers ('ipw', 'iw

Wonder if there is a link to 'wikidevi.com' on the FreeBSD WLAN driver project
site...
Cheers

Thought I share good news as well:
1. Temporarily switched to power line network, so the server is 'wireless' and
functions as wanted. Speed dropped from about 1.2 Mbit within the apartment to
300 Kbit between the 2 floors, however, reliability is over speed in my case.
There was no need to upg
