If you don't have it, you need /dev/cuaa4 for ppp on sio4. You need to
make these devices as FreeBSD only has 0-3 by default:
cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV cuaa4 ttyd4

I think the message you received is pretty clear. CardBus cards are
not supported in stable at this time. They will be supported under V5
in another year. Support MAY show up in 4.x if the developers working
on it get enough time.
