otus(4) only supports the AR9170 chip which is a completely
different beast than the AR9271.
The AR9271 chipset is not supported by OpenBSD, it would
require a new driver. It is supported under Linux by the
ath9k_htc driver so it would be possible to add support in
OpenBSD by reusing code in

You're using the wrong firmware.
On OpenBSD 4.1, you should be using revision 1.13 of the firmware
package as stated in the 4.1 wpi(4) man page.

of improvements have been made in the wpi driver since 4.1.

Recent changes in wpi(4) require an upgrade of the wpi-firmware
package to revision 2.14.4.
As usual, you can find a prepackaged version of the firmware at:

or you can download it directly from:
Of course, this is only for people following -current.
*DO NOT* update your wpi-firmware package if you're running 4.1!
Users running 4.1 must use rev. 1.13 of the package as indicated
in the wpi(4) man page.
Older revisions of the firmware are available under:

You should prefer the PCMCIA one.
The RT2500USB chipset has poor support for per-node tx rate
