i think making list of incompatible network cards would be far easier.

since a very long time i just never checked as everything have a driver in 
FreeBSD. actually i only once seen card that FreeBSD had no driver.

fortunately ndisgen tool solved it. Of course using ndisgen and windows 
driver in anything else than home toy isn't good, but it was exactly home 
toyputer.
