Here [1] is a port I'm planning to commit that installs the=20 needed firmware and optionally (you seem to need it though) a=20 kernel module to support your card. I can't test it by myself, so I'd be glad you test it for me. It has a rcNG script, if you just put iwi_enable=3D"YES" it will try to set iwi0 in bss mode. Just put if_iwi_enable=3D"YES" in /boot/loader.conf so that it works at boot time. See pkg-message for more information. Note: It needs latest modifications I just committed to=20 net/ipw-firmware.=20 Note2: Sorry, it has nothing to do with ndis(4).
