Hi,
Odd its not working, from what you pasted below
rtwn0@pci0:7:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x1629103c chip=0x817610ec
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
Its showing the driver as attached.
whats the output of
grep rtwn /var/run/dmesg.boot
Also i'm bring the freebsd-wireless mailing list back in as more eyes
are better for solving this kind of stuff and also I can be a bit slow
at replying (work, small children, cats, etc etc)
