Hi,

$ egrep 'sk0|wlan' /etc/rc.conf.local
ifconfig_sk0="DHCP"
wlans_iwi0="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP"

When booting up or netif restart:

Starting Network: lo0 sk0.
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384
         options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM>
         inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
         inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128
         inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
sk0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
         options=b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU>
         ether 00:11:22:33:44:55
         media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
         status: no carrier

Please note that iwi/wlan is not even mentioned. (!)
The same happens whether booting up or via /etc/rc.d/netif restart.

On older versions of FreeBSD iwi0 was turned up and associated.
With 8.0 I am getting errors from services started on boot that try to 
reach the network (e.g. ntpd).  It also seems to break lagg for me.

Regards,

Martin
