I have an Intel 2200 Wireless card on my laptop. It was working on
OpenBSD 3.8. I have just installed a fresh OpenBSD 3.9. I also have
installed the 3.0 firmware.

# pkg_info
iwi-firmware-3.0    Firmware binary image for iwi driver

(I am not certain, but I think 3.0 firmware is only for current.)

# pkg_delete iwi-firmware-3.0

Make sure if you have a switch to turn it on.
After (2.3) completes this is what I did to get wifi working:

(wifi without encryption + dhcp)
# ifconfig iwi0 nwid APName
# ifconfig iwi0 up
# dhclient iwi0

(wifi with WEP + dhcp)
# ifconfig iwi0 nwid APName nwkey 0x01234567890ABCDEF7890123456
# ifconfig iwi0 up
# dhclient iwi0

iwi0: could not read firmware iwi-boot, error 2
iwi0: could not load boot firmware
iwi0: could not read firmware iwi-boot, error 2
iwi0: could not load boot firmware

These errors are from using 3.0 firmware on 3.9 release/stable, when
you should be using 2.3.
