Hi,

11n does work on both the old and new wifi stacks (the latter is in
progress) with at least some drivers.  11ng (2.4 GHz) works and I
think 11na (5 GHz) does also (at least I think it does on the new
stack).  Have you tried it?  ifconfig will report the current mode.

It looks like iwm(4) does support it.
