If ndisgen doesn't work you usually get an error message. Without knowing the error message and how you got it, it's hard to tell what's wrong. Try running ndisgen /path/to/INF /path/to/SYS an press return a few times. Afterwards you should either have the kernel module containing the firmware, or a reason why the build failed.

Re: need help with pcmcia wireless network card
Okay. I've got it sorted out. I found some instructions here, http://dannyman.toldme.com/2005/01/05/freebsd-howto-ndisulate-windows-drivers/ I used Dell drivers with ndisgen instead of Buffalo's and got it working.
