I tend to add these to pccard_ether.
Currently I use;
if expr "//${interface}" : '^//wi[0-9]' > /dev/null ; then
# we have a wavelan card. do we have any configs for it ?
# tx rate to use
eval wi_txrate="\$wi_txrate_${interface}"
if [ -n "$wi_txrate" -a "x$wi_txrate" != "xNO" ]; then
wicontrol -i $interface -t "$wi_txrate"
fi

eval wi_networkname=\$wi_networkname_${interface}
if [ -n "$wi_networkname" -a "x$wi_networkname" != "xNO" ]; then

wicontrol -i $interface -n ""

wicontrol -i $interface -n "$wi_networkname"

wicontrol -i $interface -k "" -v $num

wicontrol -i $interface -f "$wi_frequency"

and you then add config options to /etc/rc.conf as with everything else.
It can take a second or so to go through and config them all, though.

You should do DHCP through the standard configs - pccard_ether="DHCP"
? (I don't use the 4.* pccard_ether scripts, I still use hacked
around PAO bases pccard_ether* so don't remmeber exactly).
