it can compile and operate with some kernel source reversions.

Usage:

This experimental version of the ACX(4) driver for FreeBSD-6.1+ should work for
infrastructure clients, Ad-hoc connections and in a limited form as an access
point. In the latter case functionality such as power saving or client to
client bridging is not implemented.

ifconfig is used to configure the ip address of the adapter which initialises
the connection and the application "acxtool" found in the acxtool directory
should be compiled to configure attributes such as channel, ssid etc, however
ifconfig may perform most of these operations but the feature set at this time
is incomplete.

Usage:

rufus# kldload acx100fw.ko  # if you have an acx100
rufus# kldload acx111fw.ko  # if you have an acx111
rufus# kldload if_acx.ko    # driver for either of the above

rufus# kldstat
