half-mini PCIe wifi card and hostpad mode?

[Patrick Proniewski]

Hi,

I'm not sure if it's the right mailing list for this question, but as mini PCIe wifi cards are mostly used in mobile computers, I give it a try:

I'm looking for a half mini PCIe wifi card supporting hostapd mode. I might be wrong, but it appears that only Atheros chipset can be used with hostpad. I've found many recent Atheros based half mini PCIe wifi cards, but according to `man ath` on FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE-p2 they are not supported:

Atheros AR5B95 AR9285 802.11B/G/N Half Mini PCI-E Card
Atheros AR5B93 WiFi 802.11n draft Wireless Half Mini PCI-E Card
Atheros AR5BHB92-H AR9280 802.11 b/g/n Wireless PCIe Half Size Mini Card

It would be great if someone could give some pointers to half mini PCIe WIFI cards working in hostapd mode on FreeBSD 9.1.

Regards,
Patrick
