 Your best bet is to browse the drivers linked through the 'wlan'
 driver:

 http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/**cgi/web-man?command=wlan**section=ANYhttp://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/cgi/web-man?command=wlansection=ANY

 and to check the source to match your device ID.

 I used to use rum(4), but this was broken in an infrastructure update -
 I believe there is some talk from some months ago discussing
 usb wlan interfaces - IIRC we don't have a working one but I'm
 unfortunately not up to speed on that at the moment.

Regarding USB wireless adapters

[Abhishek Sharma]

Hi everyone,

I use a Toshiba satellite pro which has got Realtek wireless drivers, which
is currently unsupported for BSD unix. I really wish to use dragon BSD as a
software developer, but wireless is pretty crucial to me. So my question
is, can I buy a USB wireless adapter? Is any of those supported?? If yes,
please let me know which one to go for.

 Any ideas on how (and if) I can get this to work.

There is no support for broadcom's usb wifi chips.

Um, wouldn't it work with ndiswrapper? Ages ago I got a NetGear WG111
working on FreeBSD via
ndiswrapper. I guess it should be possible to do this on DragonFly as well.
