Forwarding as no answer on freebsd-stable (although a 2nd problem report did appear yesterday from someone else with the same device string but different card and chip ids see *http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.freebsd.stable/browse_thread/thread/0cc4e313e063736a*) I'll add a PR in bit. I'm having issues getting my wireless card working with a recent stable. It was working with 8.0-RELEASE I created wlan0 manually for debug ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 wlanmode station country GB wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf ifconfig wlan0 10.0.0.1/25 if I then ping a known reachable IP on that network I cause a device timeout.
