Check out ral(4) and acx(4) man pages. Maybe bwi(4). It's better to know end user's point, to avoid different bugs and problems. bwi(4) is badliest choice, as it's totally based on reverse engineering. I already have bcm-based integrated card, and it's loss when far from access point.

If ever looked into sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC you should notice there is not too much choice wrt tested wireless drivers.

So you suppose others will not? :) For this crap (bcm4318 as Airport Extreme Card) and current driver the 'far' is 2-3 meters :) There aint such problems with native Mac OS X, as it has original proprietary driver. If ever looked into sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC you should notice there is not too much choice wrt tested wireless drivers. My foolishness, as using custom kernel config long ago.
