Dear all, This driver supports 8187L which is one of Realtek's 8187x series and I'm looking for testers who have this device. :-) With lack of H/W I can't add codes for 8187/8187B devices that AFAIK they can share a lot of codes and can be supported without modifying many part of codes. In my environment the basic features (WEP/WPA and etc ...) are worked and the driver based on USB1 (not USB2) can be found at as follows: http://people.freebsd.org/~weongyo/urtw_20081107.tar.gz I think a current problem of urtw(4) is poor RX/TX performance about 8 ~ 10Mbps due to mishandling the rate controlling and I'm not sure it would easy to fix it without documents but I expect the connection would be stable. Please let me know if you encounter any problems or opinions. Always patches to improve or enhance features are welcome! regards, Weongyo Jeonghome | help
