The ideal module is low cost, works with minimal effort and also has a USB dongle approximation for early stage development.

I'd bought some nano WiFi USB on AliExpress marketed for Rasberry usage.
They are Ralink RT5390 based, but I only used it for some small tests
on a Wandboard, since a Wandboard is what I currently use as a lab
gadged and the wandboard internal isn't supported by FreeBSD yet.
Bluetooth USB isn't a real problem - most cheap should work.
