Thanks. Unfortunately, it seems that the list of supported cards in ath(4)
could do with updating.

I just went out and bought a Netgear WG311 - that's exactly what it says on
the box. However it's not recognised by the generic kernel, nor by
`kldload ath`. According to `pciconf -l -v`, it is:

none2@pci2:11:0:        class=0x028000 card=0x4c001385 chip=0x9066104c rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Texas Instruments (TI)'
    device   = 'TNETW1130(ACX111) 802.11b/g Wireless Cardbus/PCI Adapter'
    class    = network

Hmm, and now I know this, I find

Short of messing with Windoze NDIS drivers, it seems like I have bought
myself an expensive blanking plate :-(

Regards,

Brian.
