      will this wireless card work with an APU 1C board with pfsense installed on?

      and also if i buy two (2) MMCX to ReSMA pigtails will they both work as Rx/Tx or will one be Rx and the other be Tx?

      many thanks for your help

        This thread seems to show it works under 2.2.

        I believe the antenna sockets are configurable for either but usually the hardware uses diversity to choose the antennas in response to the signal conditions.

            I don't know I'm afraid, I don't have an APU. Theoretically the cards listed here should work:
            https://wiki.freebsd.org/dev/ath_hal%284%29/HardwareSupport
            However not all features seem to work with all cards. Don't buy anything that hasn't been reported as working on the forum.

            I have no idea when 2.2 will be released, I'm not connected to ESF or the dev team. You can check redmine to see what is still preventing 2.2 going RC. I would guess at 'soon'.  ;)
