ndis0: <Airlink101 300N Wireless PCI Adapter> mem 0xfaaf0000-0xfaafffff irq 9 at device 7.0 on pci4
ndis0: [ITHREAD]
ndis0: NDIS API version: 5.0

NDIS: open file /compat/ndis/rate.bin failed: 2
ndis0: using obsoleted if_watchdog interface
ndis0: Ethernet address: 00:18:02:60:xx:xx


I followed the ndis instructions here

I found the rt2860.bin file inside the linux support package at ralink.

RT2860

I need to understand what rate.bin is now. To bad I cant google "rate.bin"

Any luck finding rate.bin? I have a lot of luck getting kernel panics every time I bring the interface up and provision with an IP. :-P

I see that both bin files are in rtl2860.sys -- but realtec's website says little of any use.

I actually gave up on ndis and even 802.11n in FreeBSD. I've had a few hard hangs in 7.0 now.
