I have just finished reworking the "if_ural" driver. It was not an easy task, 
but now the work is done. If someone has got time to look at the code and 
maybe give some comments, please do. A few small bugs were fixed. No serious 
security issues were found.

For those of you interested in testing it out, here are the instructions:

I recommend that you fetch all files from SVN. The SVN port is  
at /usr/ports/devel/subversion . After Subversion is installed you run:

svn --username anonsvn --password anonsvn checkout svn://svn.turbocat.net/i4b

cd i4b/trunk/i4b/FreeBSD.usb

make S=../src package
make install

Follow the "make help" instructions.

Before you build the kernel copy the following files into 
"/usr/src/sys/dev/usb/":

i4b/trunk/i4b/src/sys/dev/usb/if_ural.c
i4b/trunk/i4b/src/sys/dev/usb/if_uralreg.h
i4b/trunk/i4b/src/sys/dev/usb/if_uralvar.h

NOTE: the kernel build will most likely fail, unless you are using 
FreeBSD-7-current. If it fails because there are missing product ID defines, 
then just remove these lines from the "ural_devs" structure. If it fails 
because "IEEE80211_FEXT_SWBMISS" is not defined, then change the failing code 
to something like this:

#ifdef IEEE80211_FEXT_SWBMISS
        /* enable SW bmiss handling in sta mode */
        ic->ic_flags_ext |= IEEE80211_FEXT_SWBMISS;
#endif

Else please report the error, if you cannot resolve it.
