>Description:
I'm having trouble with the wi driver and a 3com wifi card.
Under some load testing, I got a total freeze of the interface and the following kernel messages:

The card is a:
wi0: <Intersil Prism2.5> mem 0xd8000000-0xd8000fff irq 17 at device 1.0 on pci3
wi0: using RF:PRISM2.5 MAC:ISL3874A(Mini-PCI)
wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary (1.1.0), Station (1.4.9)
wi0: Ethernet address: 00:0d:54:aa:62:12
wi0: 11b rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps
Fiddling with the device with ifconfig didn't help; only a reboot fixed the problem.
To add insult to injury, the whole thing happened while I was doing load-tests of an el-cheapo Belkin card with ndiswrapper on Linux on a different machine, copying a couple hundred megs of data to and fro the FreeBSD box over wlan. ;-(
