See "ifconfig <device> media" for some of that information.

"apropos wireless" is your friend here. A quick perusal shows that
rum(4) and ural(4) are USB and provide Host AP modes. I have personally
used rum(4) as an access point briefly but wireless is limited to
802.11g for now in general and rum(4) and ural(4) are 802.11a/b/g and
802.11b/g respectively. Work is ongoing to add 802.11n support to
OpenBSD starting with iwm(4).
