I have two of these cards. The drivers are there, and you can even setup the HT channels and such, but there is no N-speed rate control in FreeBSD 8.1, so it will not work faster than G speeds. It will probably make it in sometime after 2.0 if the support in FreeBSD is there in the version we move up to for 2.1.
