I failed to mention that the integrated circuit is an Atheros AR9380. When you asked this yesterday, you got the following response: --=-=-= Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: attachment Content-Description: previous answer From: Joshua Isom <jrisom@gmail.com> Subject: Re: Install TP-LINK TL-WDN4800 wireless network interface card To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2013 16:17:08 -0500 (1 day, 20 hours, 48 minutes ago) [1. text/plain] You'll need to run -CURRENT instead of 9.1, and all the caveats that apply. You'll also need the special HAL that hasn't yet been commited to -CURRENT. There are instructions on the freebsd-wireless mailing list. I'm using that exact card right now. Run `pciconf -lv` and you should see it, but there's no driver in 9.1. On 4/10/2013 3:39 PM, leeoliveshackelford@surewest.net wrote: > Good afternoon, dear FreeBSd enthusiasts.
