Hi Alin,
I'm pretty sure the answer is no... The wi(4) driver supports most cards
with common 802.11b chipsets, but this device provides some nonstandard
22Mbps mode with a TI chipset that I doubt is supported in FreeBSD.
The wi(4) manpage contains a reasonable list of supported chipsets and
cards, although some of these are probably hard to find these days.
Cheers,
Scott
