Hi! The stack supports 11n. There's a bunch of 11n capable PCI/PCIe and USB hardware. All the Atheros PCI/PCIe 11n hardware is supported. I'm fixing up the intel support to do 11n "right". Which version of FreeBSD are you using? You should be running 10.0 for "working" 11n. -adrian On 13 November 2013 13:40, Thomas Mueller <mueller6724@bellsouth.net> wrote: > 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. > > > Tom > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-wireless@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-wireless > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-wireless-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
