It's impossible to help you diagnose this without a lot more
information. What version of FreeBSD are you using? What settings do
you have in rc.conf and (if appropriate) /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf?
Have you tried the same card with the same AP(s) with another
operating system?

I have this same card and it works quite well in both FreeBSD and
Windows in 11g mode with my Linksys WRT54G AP on 8-current.
