This device is an ar9170 chipset. The only BSD driver that I'm aware of that supports it, is OpenBSD's opus driver. Linux has two drivers for it, and they both require firmware: carl9170 (which is the newest one) and ar9170usb .. I don't know if the OpenBSD just packages the firmware, or what, but I also have this adapter, and it works great under OpenBSD and Linux.
