in addition to the former msg both cards are probed as 11a/b/g but are not, 
pciconf on 6.0-R

this is the DWL-G520 

ath0 at pci0:11:0: class=0x020000 card=0x3a131186 chip=0x0013168c rev=0x01

    device   = 'AR5212, AR5213 802.11a/b/g Wireless Adapter'
    class    = network
    subclass = ethernet
