      I've just set up a router based on a Logic Supply fanless Atom PC. I believe the wireless card is an AzureWave AW-NB037H; it's using the ath driver at least.

      The curious thing is that this card is claimed to support 802.11b/g/n, but the pfSense 2.0.2 install on the box, and the 2.0.3 update I installed last night, only seem to get b/g functionality out of it. Is this a freeBSD 8.x driver issue? Can I expect to see 802.11n functionality in pfSense 2.1?

        Nope, definitely no N in FreeBSD 8.3. Be glad it works at all.

          So it's not just me then. Thanks, I think.

          What's the earliest FreeBSD release that supports n on this card?

            Uhm… FreeBSD-HEAD for some tiny amount of mostly Atheros chipsets, experimental and incomplete.
