Issue #2806 has been updated by daftaupe.
For what it's worth after 6 years, I found a laptop with such a Wireless
adapter :
<pre>
ath0@pci0:1:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x410e144d chip=0x0032168c rev=0x01
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Qualcomm Atheros'
device = 'AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter'
class = network
</pre>
It's working out of the box with the 6.0-RELEASE, but not with 5GHz networks
(that was my mistake at the beginning).
The working rc.conf configuration is :
<pre>
dhcpcd_enable="YES"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA"
</pre>
And for /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf I had to add the following lines
<pre>
network={
ssid="mynetwork"
scan_ssid=0
psk="xxxx"
priority=5
}
</pre>
