David,

Did it work with ath, rtw, and iwi on NetBSD 3?  I did not think it did.
I only expect for it to work with wi.  Everything other driver is
a toss-up.

I have been saying so for some time, but here we go again: NetBSD *really*
needs to borrow the 'list scan' functions from ifconfig in FreeBSD.
All of the kernel support should be in NetBSD already.  Borrowing those
functions does not require any 802.11 expertise.  Don't wait for me to
do it, I haven't the time or the interest.

Dave
