I had a D-Link DWL-G650 on loan.  Initially, I tried to purchase one of
those myself, but failed to get a H/W Rev. A/B one as indicated on
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/laptop/wireless/ath.  With the
version 0.2 of the ath driver, any rev should do according to
http://madwifi.org/wiki/Compatibility, so I'll probably purchase one next
year.

Fine, thanks for the pointer.

I'll give it a try sometime early next year.
