Please CC to [EMAIL PROTECTED] too if it works in the future... I had
to use FreeBSD on this wireless machine for the time being.

 From your dmesg:

ath0 at pci1 dev 8 function 0 "Atheros AR5212" rev 0x01: apic 2 int 12 (irq 12)
ath0: AR5213 7.9 phy 4.5 rf2112a 5.6, FCC2A*, address 00:0f:b5:4f:3f:42


See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openbsd-misc&m=114851461330633&w=2

Or, to quote the essence of Reyk Floeter's answer in the above linked
message: "The rf2112 is an unsupported chipset..."
The diff he's proposed has been committed to -current since, as you can
see for yourself, but it doesn't solve the problem (it just disables the
"RF radio not supported" message and forces the rf chip to attach).

I have the exact same issue with a D-Link DWL-G520. With the diff (I run
4.0 release) it attaches but fails to connect find any networks (and in
AP mode other computers can't find any wireless networks).

Is there hope of adding support for this chip in the future sometime?

Thanks,
Ido.
