You can turn on net80211 debugging my setting sysctl net.wlan.0.debug=0xffffffff (or use wlandebug). Kick off a scan and see if anything is returned. The ndis code uses a highly suspicious 2 second delay between issuing the scan to the card and reading the results. It has always been like this but the changes I have recently done put this in the same execution path. Before it would return to the userland context and then read the results, this probably gave the card a little more time to respond. As a test you could bump up the wait time on the tsleep on line 3510 of if_ndis.c cheers, Andrew
