hi people first and foremost apologize me for my bad english I have a
little question, if i want to understand how work a net driver, what
things i will need to learn?

Actually i know how to program with C language in a basic level but i
don't know nothing about hardware or computer organization, what
topics i should study for gain knowledges about net-drivers ? or if
someone can recommend me books about this topic  i will be very
thankful.

thanks in advance.



Unfortunately FreeBSD is poorly documented when it's about driver and kernel programming, compared to Linux (in my humble opinion). That's why, to begin learning and experimenting, I recommand you to start with Linux.
3 books:
Linux Device Drivers
Building Embedded Linux Systems (for embedded systems)
Understanding the Linux Kernel
