ndis and USB wirelless ethernet

[JASSAL Aman]

Hello Mr.Vassiliadis,

I see you were trying to use a Netgear WG111v3 WiFi dongle. I had also
tried to work with this dongle last year with FreeBSD 7.0 but to no avail,
ndis never managed to build a correct driver module for this dongle.

I don't know if the more recent versions of FreeBSD have added support for
this dongle, but if you are in a hurry, you can try using Hercules' WiFi
dongle for example, they are well taken in charge of by the rum driver.

NDIS works well when you have devices and their XP drivers, I don't really
know if the guys working on Project Evil have also performed some work to
build modules with Vista drivers.

Good luck
