            Bug ID: 257361
           Summary: Recent hardware notes misdirect users of Intel
                    Wireless 7260 to use iwn(4)
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Website
          Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: grahamperrin@gmail.com

These four pages: 

<https://www.freebsd.org/releases/12.0R/hardware/#wlan>
<https://www.freebsd.org/releases/12.1R/hardware/#wlan>
<https://www.freebsd.org/releases/12.2R/hardware/#wlan>
<https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.0R/hardware/#wlan>

– make the following statement: 


[i386, amd64] Intel Dual Band Wireless AC 3160/7260/7265 IEEE 802.11ac network
adapters (iwn(4) driver)


<https://forums.FreeBSD.org/threads/81442/post-524125>: 

> … must be a typo.

The manual page for iwn(4) makes no mention of 7260. 

The manual page for iwm(4) does mention 7260.

At a glance, <https://www.freebsd.org/releases/11.4R/hardware/#wlan> is
probably OK.
