Hello,

Since yesterday, Intel 2200BG wifi card in my laptop stopped working all
of sudden.  Reboots and usual dances with driver (iwi(4)) did not help.
Attached is relevant parts of dmesg(8) with debug.iwi=5 (also downloadable
from http://193.124.210.26/iwi.dmesg).  Basically, once I try to configure
it, I will see "iwi0: firmware error" on the console.  I did not do
anything with the kernel or the base.  Any ideas on how to fix it?

Since this card gave me lots of troubles over the past, any one can
recommend a decent mini-pci replacement?  It looks like ath(4) chips are
currently best supported.  I am thinking of something AR9223-based, which
should provide me with better experience and give 802.11n support as a
nice bonus.  Opinions?

Thanks,
