If your goal is just to use Wi‐Fi from NetBSD and you have an Android device, then you can use USB tethering, and it should work fine. I’m currently using this exact setup to send this message. :-)
If you do decide to try it, a bit of adcice I can give is that, for me, I have to have USB tethering enabled on my phone before NetBSD boots in order for me to be able to have Internet access. Since my phone disables it when my computer is turned off, it means I have to navigate to the Android settings and turn it on while my computer is on the boot countdown.
