By far, your best bet is to give up now and do an OS upgrade. Updating drivers independently is a completly unsupported operation for experts only. The above error means you need to updated your if_media support. To do that you need to find the commit logs for the upgrades to add IEEE 802.11 support to if_media and update all the files in question. There are probalby other things you'd have to update too. > How can I update the AN Driver !! The suggestion by Kevin Oberman: > > 1.
