        Hi there,
        I gather you're talking about a TP-LINK WiFi card, but you need to be more specific about the model number so that the chipset can be identified.
        Once you have the chipset info look it up here:
        https://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.3R/hardware.html
        (I'm assuming that you want to install pfSense 2.1.x)
        Good luck,
        Halea

          Thanks you.

          I think take this :

          http://www.tp-link.fr/products/details/?model=TL-WN881ND

          or

          http://www.tp-link.fr/products/details/?model=TL-WN851ND

          :)

            TL-WN881ND chipset is Atheros AR9287
            TL-WN851ND chipset is Atheros AR9227

            Both chipsets are supported by FreeBSD 8.3. You should have no problem with pfSense 2.1.x

            Bonne chance

                There's no support for 802.11N in 2.1.5 though. So you'll only see 'G' speeds, 54M max.

                  I have the WN 861N and 961N miniPCI cards and neither have dual band support in the 2.2 betas. Only 2.4ghz. Not a chipset limitation but manufacturers. Mikrotiks do 5ghz, TPlink dont. Same chipset. Nice looking MIMO cards though.Bah
