If you can correctly use FreeBSD's wifi then any feedback specific to this driver is a great help for it's ongoing development. I have been successfully using this rt2870 driver for a 802.11n connection with WPA2-AES security for a while now and others have reported great success with both rt2860 and rt2870 in 802.11N mode. This patch is not required for FreeBSD 8.0 though unlike the above patch. If you use FreeBSD 7.2 with 802.11N then you may also want this patch. Follow the usual guide for rebuilding the kernel. If your Access point sends ADDBA requests you may need this to get 802.11n working.
