Scott Mitchell has been spear heading a port of the Linux Xircom driver to FreeBSD in the last few months. You can download the driver from http://www.freebsd-uk.eu.org/~scott/xe_drv and easily install it in your kernel. There is a mailing list for the project at freebsd-xircom@lovett.com. The driver is coming along. But there is a problem with all UNIXes that can only use one part of a multifunction card at a time, so if you have one of the Ethernet/modem cards, you can use either the modem or the Ethernet part, but not both.
