I've put the sleep command in rc.suspend and the wake in rc.resume but
they didn't help. I also tried to use these commands manually and again
no luck. Killing dhclient and restarting manually works though.

The script I use is a "homemade" one, after looking at
/etc/rc.d/dhclient it seems that this will do the job nicely enough,
thanks for this tip. 

My main problem now comes back to the wi driver spitting up a whole lot
of errors, it's now quite often freezing up entirely with the following
...

wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0121; event status 0x8080

The machine then has to be hard reset when this happens.
