      Dear all

      Below I attached the hole dmesg. Is there a hardware compatibility problem with this chipset?

          I've downloaded the new version of tinybios from this page:
          http://www.pcengines.ch/tinybios.htm
          , but sadly I've no bloody idea how to upgrade the bios….! Is there anyone who can give me a simple and short howto?

            Download this file and check the readme, i prefer the "XModem" Update :

            http://www.pcengines.ch/wbios111.zip

            Flash upgrade:

            There are two ways to upgrade the flash BIOS:

            • SETBIOS.COM

            This program can be executed from a DOS bootable disk. It will
              look for WRAP.ROM, and program it into flash.

            • Xmodem update

            Using a terminal program, press S during the memory test.
              The setup screen will be displayed. Press X, then start a
              X-Modem (1K, CRC) upload of e.g. WRAP1.UPD. The .UPD files
              consist of the flash update WRAP_UP.BIN, and the flash image.
              When the upload completes, the flash update is automatically
              executed.

                Wich version of PFsense do you use ?
                My WRAP works fine with the 1.0.1 Release…
