It looks you have a N PHY device which isn't supported by bwn(4) yet so
there is a possibility that with bwn(4) you could fail to attach
currently.

Could you please show me your full dmesg?  It's weird for me that if_bwn
doesn't print any messages that your device revision could not be
supported by bwn(4).
