I've tested it for a few hours with Video-on-Demand, email etc and it works without issues. The thing is it seems to be recognized as a generic Realtek device: # dmesg (...) urtwn0 at uhub0 port 4 configuration 1 interface 0 "Realtek 802.11n WLAN Adapter" rev 2.00/2.00 addr 2 urtwn0: MAC/BB RTL8192CU, RF 6052 2T2R, address 08:be:ac:1d:40:96 # usbdevs -v (...) addr 02: 7392:7822 Realtek, 802.11n WLAN Adapter high speed, power 500 mA, config 1, rev 2.00, iSerial 00e04c01 driver: urtwn0 It is also not referenced in the man page as a supported device. In src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs, on line 1722, I could can find product EDIMAX RTL8192CU 0x7822 RTL8192CU but I have no real clue about what to modify and propose a diff. Sorry. for usb, strings from the device are preferred with usbdevs as fallback see usbd_cache_devinfo() in sys/dev/usb/usb_subr.c Hum, ok. Does this means that particular device does not announce itself with the proper brand/model but with a generic identifier?
