Did you load ral(4)? Your interface is using a ral chipset, not an
atheros one.

``kldload if_ral''
/boot/loader.conf: if_ral_load="YES"

Whenever asking questions like these, it may be useful to know the
FreeBSD version you're using.

_If_ we're talking about 7.x or 6.x, your kernel needs a bit tweaking
(AFAIK the pciid 0x0781 isn't known by ral).
