This card (vendor=0x168c, dev=0x0013) based on Atheros AR5213 chip.
Atheros chips supported by ath(4) driver. See manual pages ath(4)
<http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ath&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+5.2.1-RELEASE>
for checking supported chips.

Quote from manual page:
==============================================================================
~     The ath driver provides support for wireless network adapters based on
~     the Atheros AR5210, AR5211, and AR5212 chips.  Chip-specific support is
~     provided by the Atheros Hardware Access Layer (HAL), that is packaged
~     separately.
