PCI Express Mini Card wireless adapters +based on the Ralink RT2501USB and RT2601USB chipsets. +.Pp +Ralink PCI Express Mini Card adapters show up as normal USB 2.0 +devices and are thus handled by the +.Nm +driver. +.Pp +The RT2501USB chipset is the second generation of 802.11a/b/g adapters from +Ralink. +It consists of two integrated chips, an RT2571W MAC/BBP and an RT2528 or +RT5226 radio transceiver. +.Pp +The RT2601USB chipset consists of two integrated chips, an RT2671 +MAC/BBP and an RT2527 or RT5225 radio transceiver. +This chipset uses the MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) technology +with multiple antennas to extend the operating range of the adapter +and to achieve higher throughput. +.Pp +.Nm +supports +.Cm station , +.Cm adhoc , +.Cm hostap , +and +.Cm monitor +mode operation. +Only one virtual interface may be configured at any time. +For more information on configuring this device, see +.Xr ifconfig 8 . +.Sh HARDWARE +The +.Nm +driver supports USB 2.0 wireless
