Default install of Solaris does not set PATH to see sbin or non-core bin directories. You also need to be root by using the 'su' command as network control needs access to the device. You also need to put the plumb argument at the end of the ifconfig command, eg: ifconfig ath0 plumb. You should also check dmesg for the device by using 'grep' to find "ath".
