Please try a -current kernel. There have been several improvements since the 7.0 release tag. Perhaps your problem has already been fixed? If the problem still occurs, please enable 'ifconfig iwm0 debug' and wait for it to trigger again. The driver should then print additional messages to /var/log/messages providing more context about the error. Thanks!
