Update: this was just fixed in iwi(4) in -CURRENT (by increasing the
beacon miss threshold for the iwi(4) driver from 7 to 10). Should 10
not be enough, it is now also possible to set the beacon miss
threshold using ifconfig.

Thanks to Sam for helping and for applying my patches to
-CURRENT. This functionality should be MFC'd in two weeks.

Regards,
Brix
