Damien Bergamini was working on a driver for this chipset but has stopped developing for freebsd after falling out with some of the other developers[1] The last Freebsd status report[2] said that support is planned but nothing more than that. No one seems to have got this going with ndiswrapper either unfortunately. I have the driver Damien started somewhere if you want to try it (it works for some people not for others, for me it works, but sends lots of output to console and only gets 6Mbps.)
