  | This is the output I got from dmesg:
  |
  | vendor 10ec product 8185 (ethernet network, revision 0x20) at pci4 dev 9 
  | function 0 not configured
  |
  | I hope that contains the pci id, if not I may need some guidance.

It does, that's the 10ec:8185 which is also

  | this is what I got from pcictl pci0 list:
  |
  | 008:09:0: Realtek Semiconductor 8185 802.11a/b/g (ethernet network, 
  | revision 0x20)

The NetBSD driver (if_rtw_pci.c) has ...

#if 0   /* These came from openbsd, netbsd doesn't have the definitions. */
        { PCI_VENDOR_REALTEK,           PCI_PRODUCT_REALTEK_RT8185,
          "Realtek RTL8185 802.11 MAC/BBP" },

That #if 0 tells us that there's no (current) support in NetBSD for
that device -- but that it is there at all suggests that for someone
who knows what they're doing with wireless network drivers, adding it
might not be all that difficult.
