Sorry for not replying sooner, but I have a:

Oct 14 23:13:54 x41 /bsd: wi0 at pcmcia0 function 0 "D-Link, DCF-660W, "
port 0x3000/64
Oct 14 23:13:54 x41 /bsd: wi0: PRISM2.5 ISL3873 (0x800c), Firmware 1.1.1
(primary), 1.7.4 (station), address 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

which is from my Zaurus which is running:

OpenBSD 6.0-beta from June 2016 :~)

and is now the primary network interface due to the untimely demise of
my ethernet card CFLA2-100N, but on:

x41:fred ~: dmesg | head -4
OpenBSD 7.0-current (GENERIC) #216: Wed Oct 6 21:26:51 MDT 2021
deraadt@i386.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC
real mem = 1600471040 (1526MB)
avail mem = 1554927616 (1482MB)

the gkrellmwireless plugin works, when the D-Link is attached through
pcmcia CF adapter.

I've not used gkrellm since before the Zaurus went out of support...

So I'm happy if you remove it :~)

Cheers

Fred
