The link on the wifi card says "Compatible with pfsense versions 1.01 only". Will it work with the latest release of pfsense?

i have 1.2rc3 installed in my office now. everything works ok.

Everything that works on 1.0x will work on 1.2x.

Hi covex, are you using the 0.92 bios or the newer 0.98 bios.

I'm wondering as there are people in another post that reports dhcp problems with the newer bios and I would like to know if that continues to be the case.

thanks

covex

just got mine… i don't know what version of bios it is running on but it booted up right out of the box with 1.2rc3
in putty i can't see the begining of the boot as it is all jebberish and clears out only when kernel starts.
