Hi all
Thanks for such an overwhelming response at such a short notice.
FBSD 11 has updated wireless networking as a major upgrade and as Adrien
mentioned Korli has already started work on FBSD 11 compatibility layer
So, primarily I will make use of FBSD 11 drivers.
Thanks and Regards
Rajat

Maybe you could try update the compatibility layer to FreeBSD 11 level
on the USB support. I have to say i don't know the differences betweenFBSD9 and 11, maybe it would
be an extremly big work, so let hear what the others thinks.
For completeness: Korli already updated some wired ethernet drivers to
FreeBSD 11. He did not however update wireless drivers yet.
I would recommend working on wired ethernet (either USB to ethernet
adapters, or USB tethering with phones) using the new FreeBSD11
compatibility layer, and we can see about adding wireless support later on.
