> I have purchased a 802.11n mini-PCI card with device ID 168C:0027.
What chipset is used on this card? Note that PCI IDs are not safe for
identifying chipset revisions.
> What is the current status of 802.11n support in Madwifi.
MadWifi has been [wiki:news/20070920/madwifi-moves-away-from-binary-only-
hal declared legacy]. 11n support requires a good amount of changes not
only in net80211, hence it's very unlikely that 11n support will ever be
available in MadWifi. However, depending on our HAL supplier maybe support
for legacy operation (11a/b/g modes) might be possible.
