Hi list,
I can't seem to find anything about this wireless adapter. I am
thinking about building a mini ITX multipurpose router/thingy and this
card is cheap and it appears it would fit in the PCIE x4 slot on the ITX
board I'm thinking of getting. I've read somewhere that it's RT2800 but
I want to be sure. I see CURRENT supports Asus USB-N13 with it's run(4)
driver. Looks like I'm SOL on this one.
If it is supported on FreeBSD, then I need to check if I can run hostap
with it (and if it runs well) ...

This supports the 'N' standard so finding a fully functioning FreeBSD
driver for it are is probably not possible at this point in time.
FreeBSD has virtually no "n" specification driver support.
I have a request into their support staff requesting the chip info. I
have had success in the past in getting a reply back from them usually
within 48 hours or less. By the way, did you also contact them
requesting that info?
No, should I request it? Would that help?
mwl(4) supports Wireless N. Unfortunately, that Asus card is the only
card I can find that can fit in the Mini ITX system I have in mind.
Best Regards,
Nathan Lay
