I have a Netgear FA120, also following ASIX's 'demonstration design', (i.e. reference design), of AX88172 and Realtek 8201L phy. I've not tried it with FreeBSD yet, but I had in mind to use NetBSD's uax driver for the AX88172 as the starting point! uax man page: http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi/man?uax+4+NetBSD-current Netbsd cvs web: http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/usb/if_uax.c Hope this helps!
