I have such wireless interface on a Dell Latitude D505, and I have
experienced that annoying problem many times.

Enable debug.iwi sysctl and tell us what messages you see in
/var/log/messages log file.

In my own laptop, I saw these messages before the disconnection:

XXXXX kernel: Beacon miss: XX >= YY

After that I increased bmissthreshold parameter of ifconfig in rc.conf,
and the problem went away.

Hope this helps, and sorry for my poor english.

Best regards
