Hi,

You can help us by sending an e-mail to the manufacturer to provide the 
programmers guide for this device so that we can make a proper driver. I 
understand your device does not work that great under FreeBSD.

It is also possible for you look into the code and try and modify 
things, watch debug prints and so on and propose a patch. It is not that 
difficult.

Another option is to buy a Raalink based WLAN dongle. See ural/run/rum 
drivers. They work much more reliably!

Thank you!
