First and foremost start reading the handbook, it is full of information.

Follow this link http://forums.freebsd.org/showpost.php?p=124403&postcount=2 You will see my configuration, this should help you get started.

Once you have read through the handbook and checked out my configuration I want you to type some commands and then post the output.

Type the following commands:
$ uname -a
$ dmesg | grep ath

If the last command does not give you any output then try other wireless devices. For example wi for a Lucent device or bwn for a Broadcom device.

Once you have discovered which wireless device you have then you can start setting up your connection.
