DWA-525 (rev. A2)
Atheros AR9825

How to make them work in FBSD?

Can you give us the output of pciconf -lv?

According to this page there are only versions with Ralink chipsets for your card.

I think OP is actually asking about two separate cards . The AR9285 chipset works well with FreeBSD although not sure about the first chipset. The FreeBSD Handbook section for WiFi has instructions on how to set up wireless networking.

That makes a lot more sense.

ral(4) supports your DWA-525 on 11-CURRENT. It actually mentions your version specifically in the man page.

It seems to be supported by the upcoming 10.2 as well.

Given the choice, get the Atheros.
