There isn't a native FreeBSD driver, so you'll have to convert the
windows driver using ndisgen.  It's an interactive script that walks you
through the process, pretty straightforward.

Check the handbook:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/config-network-setup.html

see the man page as well: man ndisgen

You'll need the .inf and .sys files from wmp54gs.
