I tried something else today....manually build and install iwn
firmware from sys/modules/iwn, checked that loader.conf has the line
legal.intel_iwn.license_ack=1, the device is recognized as iwn0 but I
tried to set both wlans_iwn0 and wlans_ath0 to wlan0, but still no
luck :( Can someone provide the actual command that is used to create
wlan0 alias?

Another difference I noticed between 7.0 release and current: my
Symbol spectrum 24 card was detected correctly under 7.0 as the
interface wi0, but under current (after enabling firmware option for
symbol) it is not.

regards,
Rohit
