Hey, 

	Ive been using a 54g card on 5.1 current for a while know quite successfully 
for a while know. The card I am using is a Dlink with an atheros chip, this 
chip is only supported in current at this stage.

If you are running 5.1-Current you can

# man ath

and it gives a list of card that use that driver

If you wanted 802.1g you would more that likely have to upgrade to 5.1-Current
