Hi, I checked the Linux sources for their Wireless driver 28xx-3290, looks 
very very different from the small
 rwn rt2860 sources present in the illumos source tree: actually I see the 
Ralink site is gone, and the new driver
 is at Mediatek or something...but it still brings over sources of 
28xx-30xx-3290, but really really different.
 Any idea where the illumos rt2860 came from?

 Hi,
 I did some more digging on an asus with network cards not seen by XStreamOS 
with October 2015 illumos kernel.
 The two cards seen by prtconf -v are:
 LAN "Qualcomm Atheros" "QCA8172 Fast Ethernet" pci ids 1969-10a0
 ===========================================
 This seems to have many syster cards supported on the HCL, up to "Qualcomm 
Atheros AR8152".
 Maybe playing with the pci ids in driver_aliases I can make it run with the 
atge driver?
 From looking at other operating systems, ti does not appear that it will
 be quite as simple as just adding a PCI ID; however, it shouldn't be
 terribly hard for someone to port support for that generation of devices.
 Wireless "Ralink crop." "RT3290 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe" pci ids 1814-3290
 =================================================
 Also this one seems to have some syster cards supported in the HCL, up to 
"Ralink corp. RT2790 Wireless 802.11n 1T/2R PCIe".
 Here the rwn driver may be the one.
 It'd probably be a reasonable starting point, but much like with the
 Atheros case above, some additional work will probably need to be done.
