Ralink usb wireless (rt2500) support in embedded version.

Hi

I just tested the pfsense beta2 live CD on my laptop with my Zonet ZEW2500P wifi USB adaptor, it works fine.

When I try to use that same USB adaptor on my Soekris 4801 using pfsense embedded beta2 the USB wifi adaptor is not detected. I belive its because the driver is not included in the embedded version, correct? (will it be included?)

Thanks

Embedded versions does not include USB support IIRC.

ok.

Is there a way to get USB support on the embedded version? it would be VERY nice and i belive a lot of people would like to see that happen. It would open up for cheaper/easier wifi for the Soekris box (mini pci is expensive and its a nightmare to drill holes in the soekris cabinet..)

Thanks
