Hi Bigo,

Did you check the Compatible Hardware List and remember to include the list at FreeBSD.org for the version of N4F you are upgrading to?
I took a look for you and this card is not listed, that doesn't mean it won't work, find out what driver it is using now and then see if that driver is on the list or find out what chip the card uses and see if any of the cards currently on the list use it as well, if it is in the same family as a currently supported card then it will probably work.

All the best,
Al
