[H-GEN] Wireless cards under FreeBSD

Hi all,

My husband and I are trying to locate a wireless card for our FreeBSD system
at home.

Atheros chipsets are known to work under FreeBSD, so we are searching for
a card based on one.

So far we have tried two wireless cards without luck. Both were models 
that
supposedly had Atheros chipsets, but one was the '+' model, which had 
changed
chipsets but not model numbers, and the other was the 'v2' model, same 
thing.

So, does anyone know where we could source a wireless card that will play
nice with FreeBSD? Better still, has anyone got it working?

Using FreeBSD 5.2.1 (just underwent the joy of a buildworld), because
wireless support is pretty new.

Thanks
