Hi, I've installed FreeBSD 6.1 and am trying to get my wireless adapter
working. It's a Netgear WG311v3, so unfortunately ath(4) will not work
(It uses a Marvell chipset). I've tried various options (honest!).
1. The Yukon driver from Marvell. They have one for 6, and I've tried
loading it with kldload, and it loads alright, but the adapter won't
come up. The driver says it's for Yukon and I have a Ethernet
controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88w8335 [Libertas] (output
from Linux). Maybe it's for a different chipset?
Their Readme says I should remove module "sk" from the kernel, so I
rebuilt it; still no luck.
2. ndis-gen with the Netgear drivers. The adapter comes up now, but I
cannot associate with any AP.
ifconfig ndis0 up scan
ifconfig ndis0 ssid ssid_of_ap
ifconfig ndis0 ssid ssid_of_ap bssid 00:00:...
all exit with a
ndis0: bssid_list failed
Thanks
