>Description:
A bad wlan setup in a hotel forced me to restrict the wlan-mode to use
802.11b only - under windows xp. That is why I tried to set mode to 11b
under FreeBSD (same hardware) because I experienced the same network problems
as with XP.

Hardware used is HP Laptop Compaq nx8220 with Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG.

% ifconfig iwi0 mode 11b
Sleeping thread (tid 100085, pid 1227) owns a non-sleepable lock
panig: sleeping thread

This happenes on 6.1-RELEASE-p6 with iwi-firmware-2.4_7 and might be related
to older kern/89926 or kern/87413.
>How-To-Repeat:
buy a compaq nx8220 laptop, install freebsd 6.1, update to 6.1-RELEASE-p6,
install iwi-firmware-2.4_7 and type "ifconfig ini0 mode 11b" as root.

 After upgrading to 6.2-PRERELEASE and using the new 
 iwi-port (net/iwi-firmware-kmod), problem has gone 
 and it looks like I can switch between 11b and 11g 
 without problems if interface is down.
 
 Great!
 
 Only problem now is that ifconfig iwi0 up won't switch
 on the nice blue wlan-indicator-light on my laptop which 
 it did with 6.1-RELEASE-p6 and the older /net/iwi-firmware
