Do you know about http://ralink.rapla.net/? The RT2500-based cards listed there are supported by the ural(4) driver. There's a discouraging comment about using them for access points in the man page, though:

CAVEATS
    The ural driver does not support automatic adaptation of the transmit
    speed in IBSS and HostAP operating modes.

Hi,

I'm planning to set up an AP by adding an USB wifi card to a 7.0-RELEASE machine, and I'm interested in a couple of things:

- First, hardware compatibility - AFAIK only some cards support AP mode? Can anyone recommend such USB wireless hardware, preferably in terms of product names instead of chip names? I see the following cards in a local store: BANDRIDGE CWN4002G, CANYON WF-518D, CANYON WF-518, LINKSYS WUSB54GC.

- Are there any tips & tricks additional to the instructions on http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/network-wireless.html ?
