wlan driver for VIA USB card

I am looking for a driver for the VIA VNT6656G6A40 54 MBps Wireless USB Module to run on FreeBSD 7.0 i386. This is a daughterboard built around the VIA 6656 chipset. Two VIA drivers are listed in /boot/defaults/loader.conf but they are for different chip sets. http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/net
