Oh, so it's an AE then for you?  Is that a 0x10ec/0x8723?
PCI IDs will often help to properly identify them better than the
names (pciconf -lv)?

In that case I am not aware of anyone currently working on that.
The Linux version is GPL-only.  I don't know if any other BSDs have
support?

Wifibox in ports has a flavor for it so would support it in case that
helps.
