Hi all again, After some time without touching the computer I decided to have a look at the wireless problem again. It seems I can't load the firmware: firmware_get: failed to load firmware image iwi_bss Both if_ipw and ipw_bss modules are loaded. This very same computer works fine with linux, including loading the firmware. Any help is appreciated.

I'm running AMD64, there is no "device iwi" in the GENERIC file. The modules are not under /boot/kernel.
