Thanks for your Feedback. I'll try it when someone can tell me that I
can use my card as Access Point (see other mail I send), otherwise I
can throw this NDIS Stuff back into Trash ... When the card cannot do
what I want it to di, I really don't need Windows Drivers on my
FreeBSD Box ;o)

Thank you anyway! 

Regards

Tobias
