Hi All,

Things are running well now. I still find it a bit weird.
My /boot/loader.conf
# Sound Driver
snd_hda_load="YES"
# IBM drivers
acpi_ibm_load="YES"
# CPU
# cpufreq_load="YES"
# Wireless
if_wpi_load="YES"
# Wireless Security protocols
wlan_wep_load="YES"
wlan_ccmp_load="YES"
wlan_tkip_load="YES"
# Device lagg
if_lagg_load="YES"

My /etc/rc.conf
# Created: Mon Aug  1 03:11:18 2011
# Enable network daemons for user convenience.
# Please make all changes to this file, not to /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
# This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
## Name of the box
hostname="Shibari.brendhanhorne.com"
## Network information with lagg
# wired port
ifconfig_em0="up"
# wireless port
ifconfig_wpi0="ether 00:00:00:00"
wlans_wpi0="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA"
# lagg failover
cloned_interfaces="lagg0"
ifconfig_lagg0="laggproto failover laggport em0 laggport wlan0 DHCP"
## Enable Mouse
moused_enable="YES"
moused_enable="YES"
moused_flags="-V"
## NFS client
nfs_client_enable="YES"
## SSH Daemon
sshd_enable="YES"
## NTP
ntp_enable="YES"
ntpdate_hosts="us.pool.ntp.org"
## Enable Linux Binaries
linux_enable="YES"
## Xorg Drivers
hald_enable="YES"
dbus_enable="YES"
## Suspend Options
powerd_enable="YES"
powerd_flags="-a hiadaptive -b adaptive"
## CUPS
cupsd_enable="YES"
devfs_system_ruleset="system"

My /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
# Outer Limits
network={
ssid="outer_limits"
psk="xxxxxxxx"
}

So now I have a working wireless that will takes a secondary to a wired 
port. So I real happy about that.

I will now go after and tackle some of the other fun issues with the 
thinkpad tweaks.

Thank for all your help.

Sincerely,
Brendhan
