ath(4) supports SuperG, aka 108 Mbps, when connecting to SuperG access
points. I've used it successfully with the Atheros chipset in the D-Link
DWL-G650 (rev B), NetGEAR WG511T, and the onboard Atheros chipsets in a
handful of different laptops.
Not sure which drivers support 802.11n (up to 480 Mbps or something like
that), though, as I don't have access to any 802.11n hardware.
