wblock@ Developer Jul 23, 2010 #2 Use pciconf(8) to find more detail: # pciconf -lv | grep -B3 network If you're running a recent 8-stable or 8.1-whatever, the ath(4) driver will attach if it supports the chipset.

OP S Sylgeist Jul 23, 2010 Thread Starter #3 Thanks wblock - I don't have the card yet so I was just curious. It was cheap enough I'll throw it in and see what happens!
