Good to hear that it's working for you.
In my case, it was PEBKAC. To quote Firefox:
"Well, this is embarrassing."
When I upgraded my machine I also removed all installed Ports and
cleaned up my rc.conf. Somehow I changed ifconfig_wlan0 to
fconfig_wlan0.
After inserting the missing 'i' I have a working wireless connection
again.

Now please forget what you've just read and only remember that my
problem is fixed. ;-)
