In general people say that Atheros chips are the best supported (use
the ath driver).
Slightly off topic:
Is anyone using a card with an AR5213 chip? I've got a Cisco
AIR-PI21AG-A-K9 that I'd love to use to replace my crappy router, but
my machine freezes while booting when it's plugged in. ath(4)
mentions a bunch of AR5212 cards, but no AR5213 cards.
This is my build.
currently using it as a nat/firewall box.
Was intending to us it as an ap as well.
but, <sigh> obsd does not like my radios.
and have not been motivated enough to get off my ass
and do somthing about it.

So I am still using an old k6-2 400Mhz ps with a ral(4) radio
on 44 that I keep meaning to update.

works great, I have not tried many radios, but...
all my ral based radios have worked (ral, rum)
none of my ath based radios have bees supported.
and my zyd radio delevered corrupted packets.
