Default Great OS, but I need help with wireless
Hello all.
First of all, I would like to say I really am impressed with the way PC-BSD looked (and felt) right "out of the box". So far I read the Quick Guide, and learned a few things...including its far superior capabilities over Microsoft Windows, which I hate (Windows, not PC-BSD, just so you don't get the wrong idea). I also learned it has some advantages over Linux as well (I'm running Ubuntu).

But I ran into a problem: I am using a laptop (a Dell Studio 1535), that can only access the Internet via wireless, and it appears PC-BSD doesn't recognize my wireless card by default. I have the Dell Wireless 1397 WLAN Mini-Card.

Can anyone please help me with getting it to work in PC-BSD? So far it looks like a really cool OS, but without Internet access, I can't use it as my main OS (I multiboot).

Thanks in advance.
