For information, since my card is not listed om the opensolaris ath page.

I have taken the following steps to get an ath-based wifi card, 3Com 
3CRPAG175, to work under Solaris 10 U1 on my laptop, Acer Ferrari 4005.

installd cardbus-v0.2
installed wificonfig-0.1-pkg
installed wificonfig-0.2 (copy over 0.1)
installed ath-0.2

rebooted w/ -r

prtconf -v didn't give any pci168c vendor, and thus trying to plumb
an ath0 fails.

found on http://madwifi.org/wiki/Compatibility that my card was identified
as pcia727,13.

so I run the command: update_drv -a -i '"pcia727,13"' ath

plumb tha ath0 interface

and created a wificonfig profile for my network, and vola, connected!

installed inetmenu and have now ath0 and bmce0 running under its control.
