I had a Traverse Pulsar ADSL PCI card in a net4801 with the standard Soekris net4801 case and the fit was fine. The problem I had was that Traverse whilst claiming to support FreeBSD/OpenBSD originally were never able to produce working/stable drivers. I did interact with their tech support department for some time and they did try and resolve the issues but the drivers had been written by a contractor and we never managed to get a working/stable driver.
I see they are only offering Windows/Linux drivers for the Viking and so maybe you will have more luck with that... Thanks Adam.
