When confronted with these types of issues, the best thing to do is play with apropos(1) & peruse the misc@ archives. This reveals that the relevant driver is bwi(4), & the following is what discussion has transpired in the archives:

From scanning this information, I would suggest updating the firmware as discussed in the manpage first. If this does not resolve problems, consider installing -current second since development is ongoing, & all improvements will be found in -current first. Thirdly, it has been true with many wireless vendors that they are often less than forthcoming about releasing information to the public, so reverse engineering is a very slow & time consuming process. In the case, patience is more than a virtue.
