I just think that emulating drivers (windows or linux) will take freebsd into shadow in short time! On my laptop i use ndis driver, and it work just right for i386 and amd64 version of freebsd-current, you just need right windows driver! In this case Linux GPL driver for broadcom wlan is not finished! I try it and signal level was poor in just the next room! Freebsd ndis work very good in all house! This was my experience, maybe was another problem but this was my impression!
