There are numerous suggestions, I'm not yet aware of any other collection.
If the list below grows to become useful, someone might like to adapt its content for the FreeBSD wiki.

This chipset 8188eu version has a problem with the code function sequence for chipset_power_down_function (). It causes the FreeBSD driver code to lose sync with the internal firmware code. So as of Sept 2021, I would not use this device 8188EU in the TP Link WN823N. I think the NetBSD and OpenBSD and Linux device drivers work with TL-WN823N 8188eu chipset. They write a 3 step sequence to the chipset. FreeBSD source code only write a 2 step sequence. The FreeBSD code can scan for the Access Points in the area with , "ifconfig wlan0 up scan". Yet the command "ifconfig wlan0 ssid "my_acess_point" "ifconfig wlan0 up" fails So to fix the FreeBSD source for kernel modules if_rtwn_usb.ko if_rtwn.ko
This error functionality in FreeBSD/GhostBSD has been tested on two FreeBSD architectures x86_64 and aarch64.
I would use the TP Link WN725N device, which I think contains a 8192cu (or 8188cu device). Although the literature referenced above points to a 8188eu device. Wonder which RealTek chipset versions (v1, v2, v3) does work with the FreeBSD rtwn device driver? The rtwn device driver worked with EW-7811un v1, but not v2. The code needs to be updated with a new Vendor ID # for EW-7811un v2.
