Comment (by humdinger):

Please put the "All supported modern wireless hardware works out of the
 box." text into an informativ box.

 I think that would sever the connection to the next paragraph in the text.
 I also suspect that people recommending to download the firmware pack for
 modern hardware don't read the User Guide anyway, with or without an info-
 box...\\
 I did emphasize a bit more now that you don't have to download/install any
 additional firmware for modern hardware.

RTL8192EE unsupported till date...rtwn4 will not work with this
 card...pl. mention this explicitly.

 This kind of information would mean to start maintaining a list of
 un/supported cards that usually quickly gets out-of-date. Better to point
 to FreeBSD's list of supported hardware (and maybe put the models where
 Haiku diverges from that into the release notes).
