Dell D600 Wireless not working

Hello All I have attached my ifconfig,dmesg-a, wpa-supplicant and boot loader.conf and would like to know what am I missing to make the wireless work on my laptop?

I have removed the ssid and mac addresses.

ifconfig

I will post var/logs, but to answer the other question, if I use wlans_ath0 the onboard wireless will not be detected! will get "no driver" mssg.
