However what you should know is that the status of supporting 8187B chipset is in the experimental and 8187B Rev B and D doesn't tested. In addition it looks there are problems on 8187B Rev E. usbdevs(8) isn't no more supported in CURRENT so please use usbconfig(8) instead of it. Please let me know if you encounter problems to work with it. regards, Weongyo Jeong
