Andreas,

I have a similar card in my D800, you want those two files. ndisgen will
build a module called bcmwl5_sys.ko. Move that to /boot/modules, do 'kldxref
/boot/modules'. Make sure that the ndis driver is NOT loaded, then kldload
bcmwl5_sys and do 'ifconfig ndis0 up'.

If that doesn't work for you, something is desperately wrong.

hth,

Doug
