I am currently using a Dlink DWL-G520 on my freebsd 5.1-CURRENT as my access 
point. It works quite nicely, the driver is still in development, but it 
doesnt seem to do to bad, however you do need to run current to use it.

If you want to see my rc.conf reguarding this machine to make it easier to set 
up, let me know.

Thanks
