Hi Matthias,

I've had success with a (USB) D-Link DWL-G122 before (with FBSD 7.0R 
and earlier). Don't recall the specific details, but I believe I ended 
up with a 'ural0' interface upon insertion, which I then manually 
ifconfig'ed.

But this was a few years back, so not sure if this model is still on 
the market...

Good luck!
