Hello,

I have a laptop with FreeBSD, can i make a Mesh Network with the following hardware?

Hardware - Laptops with:
Wireless interface Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (onboard) - driver: iwl3945 and USB Wireless interface Edimax EW 7318USG - driver: rt73usb

Regards,

ipw(4), iwi(4), iwn(4), wi(4) will never work as they do a lot of processing in firmware (including encaping/sending packets)

The other driver isn't mentioned so assume it doesn't work.
