I have a wi(4) that attaches to usb and doesn't need firmware. These
days, it's hard to find ones that dont require firmware, but if you
stick to what comes with freely redistributable firmware files, you
should be good. rum(4), ural(4) and zyd(4) come to mind. I've had
success with all three.
Paul,
when you had success with rum(4), did you use wpa? I am having trouble
getting a Hercules HWGUSB2-54 under OpenBSD 4.4 to work with my FritzBox
7220 using wpa(tkip). At start, the association succeeds, but after some
15 minutes it disassociates and than fails to reassociate until i either
reboot the AP or the OpenBSD box. The fritzbox reports authentication
errors. If this works for you, then i would suspect that the fritzbox is
to blame.
