Your best bet is to browse the drivers linked through the 'wlan'
driver:

http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/cgi/web-man?command=wlan&section=ANY

and to check the source to match your device ID.

I used to use rum(4), but this was broken in an infrastructure update -
I believe there is some talk from some months ago discussing
usb wlan interfaces - IIRC we don't have a working one but I'm
unfortunately not up to speed on that at the moment.
