It still complements the .Xr iwn 4 driver which supports older chipsets. .Pp The driver uses the .\" No LinuxKPI man pages so no .Xr here. .Em linuxkpi_wlan and .Em linuxkpi compat framework to bridge between the Linux and native FreeBSD driver code as well as to the native .Xr net80211 4 wireless stack. .Pp While .Nm supports all 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax the compatibility code currently only supports 802.11 a/b/g modes. Support for 802.11 n/ac is to come. 802.11ax and 6Ghz support are planned. .Sh BUGS Certainly. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr iwlwififw 4 , .Xr iwm 4 , .Xr iwn 4 , .Xr wlan 4 , .Xr ifconfig 8 , .Xr wpa_supplicant 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm driver first appeared in .Fx 13.1 .
