      Hi everyone.
      I'm using PFsense 2.2.4 REL, I want to have a wireless interface, so I plug Netgear WNA1000Mv2 to the USB port, then the console shows:
      ugen4.2: <vender 0x0846="">at usbus4</vender>
      But I cannot find my new device in the firewall webpage, neither in the interface list nor in the wireless adding page, I tried reboot and plug to different port, no success.
      I even take the adapter apart to confirm the chipset, yes, it's a RTL8192CU, which should be very well compatible, but why it not work???
      Please anyone help me, thank you!

          Thank you, I checked the lists from different sources tons of times, but they seems don't even the same, some list shows WNA1000M is compatible, but in a google sheet I find that Realtek chip may not recognized on USB, and the only working USB dongle chip is RAlink, I'm going to get a EDIMAX EW-7711UAn to try…
