comp.unix.solaris is probably most relevant.

Most of the wireless driver work was done for Indiana and Nevada.

I know that early versions of ath(7D) work with Solaris 10, but
don't think many other WiFi drivers have been backported.

You should be able to find PCI cards with the Atheros chipset on eBay.

Alternatively, you can try booting the LiveCD of the development
preview of OpenSolaris 2010.03 and see if rum(7D) attaches.

Thanks, but atheros didn't work. It failed to attach. Does anyone
knows where can I find binaries for zyd? I 'd like to give it a try
but I failed to compile its sources.

They don't exist for Solaris 10.
You'll need to upgrade to a recent OpenSolaris (Indiana) build.
