For the wifi, you might have some luck with iwn on NetBSD 5+.
I can consider modems to be a general useless feature :)

Haven't tried 5+, but NetBSD 4.0.1 (release) doesn't seem to like the
bge0 NIC in the Lenovo any better than DFLY 2.X (release).
NetBSD doesn't grok 'mission type orders' - it has to be told step-by-step.
At least DFLY recognized the EagleTek (Realtek) USB NIC I added to get
'round the rejected bge, configured it, and took out a DHCP lease w/o
need of a CLR.
.now if I can find time to figure out why DFLY dropped into the
debugger when I actually tried to *use* the d**ned thing (to scp a
verbose dmesg & /var/log/messages full of kvetching ...)
'So many OS's, so little time...'
