I have an old wi(4) but can't use it, because it has no wpa, wi0 at macobio0 offset 0x30000 irq 57: wi0: Firmware 8.70 variant 1, address 00:30:65:1d:9f:51 # ifconfig wi0 nwid ___ wpakey ___ ifconfig: SIOCS80211WPAPSK: Inappropriate ioctl for device This wi is an old Apple AirPort 802.11b in a macppc G4 Cube (PowerMac5,1) from 2001. No wi(4) can go faster than 802.11b, but most people want at least 802.11g. Because wi is so old and slow, we might not find a wi user. --George
