I'm not sure if it will work under 1.5.3, but I've had great success
with the LinkSys WMP-11 under NetBSD-current.  Presumably NetBSD-1.6
has complete support for these and other PCI 802.11b cards.

If you can run the bleeding-edge NetBSD-current, Jason Thorpe just ported the
Skibo host AP code from FreeBSD/OpenBSD, which would let you run the system
as an access point.  I've found the host AP code to be pretty usable, although
YMMV.
