 Ross,
 
 the fwe (4) interface is the firewire interface.
 
 Your Broadcom is most likely currently not supported by any of the
 available drivers under FreeBSD. You should take a look at ndisgen.
 
 See: man ndisgen (8)

 To get the wireless working on the dv8000 systems, you need to
 download the Windows XP driver:
 
 4.40.19.0. - ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp33001-33500/sp33008.exe
 
 extract the files using archivers/cabextract, then use ndisgen to
 build the ndis driver for your wireless adapter.
 
 Scot
