AFAIK no 10/100 PC cards currently work with FreeBSD.  I am working on a
driver for the various Xircom cards (which might also work with Intel
cards) but it's a long way from doing anything useful.  If you need
something to work *now* your best bet might be to get a cheap 10Mbit card
until something better comes along.

HTH,
