This is very probable. Actually, it gets more complex than this... I installed the snapshot from 10/14 and after rebooting the kernel wouldn't boot. It dropped into the debugger only after a few lines of booting, somewhere around: bios0: ROM list: 0xc0000/0xc000 0xe8000/0x4000! cpu0 at mainbus0 At that point, I had to boot bsd.old because it simply refused to boot. Based on the incorrect assumption that the snapshot was pre -release I decided to download the kernel from 3.8-release and install that. The kernel now booted but wi didn't work. I started looking at the differences between 3.7-stable and 3.8-release and noticed a few changes in wicontrol and if_wi* and thought the problem was somewhere there to be found. Now, after having the versions straight, I am running 3.8-release and wi is working, after changing the #define for SIOCSWAVELAN to that which is in 3.8-current. Sorry to have wasted your time and for not providing a proper dmesg. I wasn't able to do so with the upgrade to the 10/14 snapshot because it simply wouldn't boot (and obviously wi in the snapshot does work, but I never got to try it because the kernel wouldn't boot).
