Thanks for letting me know. I was thinking it needed
a windows machine, but wasn't sure. Also, do you know
where I can download the app to update the firmware?
I have checked the www.proxim.com site and couldn't
find it.

Hmm, so does this mean that I could just make some
FreeDOS boot floppies, boot onto the floppies, switch
the floppies with the one containing the update, and
install it from there, even without having to install
windows? I guess I also could just unzip the file on
one of my windows machines and burn to a cd and
transfer it over to the NetBSD box.
Thanks again for the help!
