--- Comment #3 from eb30...@gmail.com ---
The support for Broadcom devices is limited as Broadcom has not made their code
available until recently and then maybe not the latest.

I have a Broadcom BCM4365 wireless controller (it is believed to mislabelled as
the 4366 driver is used) version 6.30.223.271 (r587334).  And a bluetooth
controller BCM 43142A.  I have the kernel source code and driver for the 4365
wifi and the driver for the 43142A bluetooth,  The kernel source code compiles,
is loaded as module "wl" and runs on linux.  Would I be able to do the same on
FreeBSD?  I run this on an HP laptop computer.

I have a keen interest in migrating to FreeBSD which I have used in the past. 
I want to move away from linux and VMware and migrate to the BHyve hypervisor
which represents an integrated solution for multiple running VMs.  But, if I
can't get my communications devices to work with FreeBSD then all is moot.
