On the computer with MSI Z77 MPOWER motherboard, I have installations of FreeBSD 10.0-BETA1 for both amd64 and i386, and FreBSD-HEAD also for both amd64 and i386.
This motherboard has onboard Atheros AR9271 wi-fi, quasi-USB, and I also have Hiro H50191 USB-stick wi-fi adapter, driver rsu.
On the other computer, I have FreeBSD 9.2-STABLE, have compiled ndis driver for this Hiro for WinXP, Vista and 7, all 64-bit, but this awaits testing with my USB-stick installation of FreeBSD 9.2-STABLE.
I noticed that rsu and urtwn are in FreeBSD beginning with 10.0, and athn is in NetBSD beginning with HEAD (6.99.xx).
