Re: [pfSense Support] WRAP/PfSense & PCMCIA :)
I would like to see support for some form of the Verizon cards. I have thought of making a wireless internet router using pfsense and the Verizon cellular broadband service.

Re: [pfSense Support] WRAP/PfSense & PCMCIA :)
This is why I am asking, I think it would be slick to have a self contained wireless router that works almost anywhere you can get a Verizon signal. VERY slick! Been drooling over this idea for a while, I emailed PC Engines, maybe they will consider a board with a PCMCIA slot. --Todd - Original Message - From: "Robert Goley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Tuesday, November 08, 2005 8:24 AM Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] WRAP/PfSense & PCMCIA :) I would like to see support for some form of the Verizon cards.

Maybe a MiniPCI to PCMCIA converter? Beats me..

For this task you could use a Soekris 4511 which has a PCMCIA slot. I however have no clue if FreeBSD has support for the verizon.

COOL! There are Linux drivers, not sure if someone can port them. Thanks.. Any chance PfSense will work with this? Can it maybe see it as a NIC or a Modem? - Original Message - From: "Scott Ullrich" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Tuesday, November 08, 2005 11:45 AM Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] WRAP/PfSense & PCMCIA :) For this task you could use a Soekris 4511 which has a PCMCIA slot.

Check the FreeBSD hardware compatibility list.

Quoth Mojo Jojo: > There are Linux drivers, not sure if someone can port them. There are NO linux drivers ;-)... Errr... Well, I am actually working with Aircard 580 and Kyocera 650. > Can it maybe see it as a NIC or a Modem? The AC580 and KPC650 are - surprise - a USB hub, carrying two USB serial ports.

Just to clarify myself - there are no Linux drivers as none are needed for the AC580 and KPC650. They are just USB serial. -- ---MAV Marc A.
