Is there any support for 802.11n in FreeBSD? I notice at least some of the drivers support b and g but not n. This is also true on NetBSD and OpenBSD. Is this particular to some particular drivers such as rsu and urtwn or is it more general, BSD-wide? I've been unable to pick up any network scanning from FreeBSD with rsu (Hiro 50191 USB-stick adapter, chipset RTL8191SU). I wonder if this could be dus to limitations of b and g. >From D-Link http://resource.dlink.com/articles/buying-guides/router-wireless-adapter-buying-guide/ 802.11b is good for a paperweight, 802.11g is good for a replacement paperweight, 802.11n is good, 802.11ac is better yet.
