So, I tried to install a wireless card on my FreeBSD machine - it just describes itself as an "ourlink", but, FreeBSD seems to find it as a urtwn(4) device. I naively tried to configure it according yo the manual for ath(4) devices, and we I rebooted, FreeBSD never saw it again. (dmesg(8) said something about an address error for that port.)
I moved it, and then configured the network as per https://vzaigrin.wordpress.com/2014/04/14/how-to-setup-usb-wifi-on-raspberry-pi-with-freebsd/. It took very little adaption to move these instructions from the Raspberry Pi to my home machine - and they worked. Until I rebooted the machine a second time, then the same error occurred again! I again changed slots on my NIC.. and then, lo and behold the network now goes up and down. Constantly.
I can try to quote some logs if anyone wants them...
