I just picked up CompUSA's generic PCI 802.11g card. FreeBSD did not recognize it after my install. I was able to get it to install using windows drivers. However, if possible I would like to use one of the native FreeBSD drivers. I've never done this sort of thing before.
Until such time as you do pciconf -lv to show us the PCI vendor/device ID for the card, there's no way anyone can help you.
Brian mailed to freebsd-questions as well, but with another subject and slightly more information. The card seems to work with ndis, but the netmask was wrong.

Yes, I did also post to freebsd-questions about a different thing. I try to keep my specialized questions to their respective lists. Sorry about not giving more detail about the card, I wasn't sure how to get the info you needed. Anyway, I did the 'pciconf -lv' and the output is below. It would be cool if I could stop using the ndis driver if it's possible.
Thanks
