The Broadcom chipset has been successfully made to run under FreeBSD, so there should not be a problem with the card per se. You will certainly need to get NDISulator (a.k.a. Project Evil) running and may have to ask on the mobile@ about successfully tried Windoze drivers to incorporate. The real problem you have is that your cardbus card is not being activated. There is a thread running now on mobile@ that seems to suggest that recent changes in CURRENT have broken cardbus support. Can I suggest following this thread and building against CURRENT when it appears to be fixed? 5.2.1p1 has been subject to a few advisories anyway so you really should be running a later patch set.
