Hello Eric, It appears that you are still running the FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE kernel. The atheros drivers are not compiled into the kernel by default. Folks on this list have expressed mixed results in loading the kernel modules, so you should probably add the following lines to your kernel configuration file and recompile your kernel: device ath device ath_hal device ath_rate_onoe device wlan #This line should be already be in the configuration file. You can find more information in the online handbook.
