I'm wanting to set up an openbsd access point by this coming friday and I'm wonder what a good card would be. I grabbed a Linksys pci card I had, and openbsd works fine with it but it doesn't seem to work in hostap mode. IBSS works fine, and as far as I can tell from the bits of documentation I can find, it *should* work in hostap mode because it's a prism2.5-based card. Here's what wicontrol says: Card info: [ Unknown PRISM II chip, Firmware 1.4.2 ] Any ideas? All I was doing for testing was trying different variations of wicontrol parameters with a laptop watching the air with netstumbler. Kick it into hostap mode and netstumbler doesn't see anything. IBSS netstumbler will find. -- *bsd wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/bsd-wireless/
