I recently bought this PCI wireless card for my PC, the device shows up when I run
When I try to restart networking(netif), the system crashes and during boot freezes causing it to crash and dump the core and log, to make it boot, I have to enter single user mode and comment out the entries.
I know there is an old thread Thread 38553, but thought the driver support would be there by now and when I came across this wiki I finally bought it, it is hard to find brands listed under ath(4) here.
My options are to wait till this is supported in the coming release, else install Debian on a partition. But would like to stick with FreeBSD, so any help or directions would help.
ifconfig.
