yes, the only reason I do not use that at the moment is that for some reason that interface is unable to load the firmware correctly (possibly needing a variant we have not encountered earlier). What I get is wx0: firmware parse error 22, section type 0 iwx0: failed to load init firmware iwx0: firmware parse error 22, section type 48 iwx0: failed to load init firmware iwx0: acquiring device failed iwx0: firmware parse error 22, section type 48 iwx0: failed to load init firmware iwx0: acquiring device failed I'd be more than willing to test anything you would suggest to get the iwx(4) interface going.
