Seems like your iwi0 is not configured properly. Check if you have
enabled the wireless. My laptop has a button for switching it on.
Then load the firm-ware, I've intel card so I loaded the iwi-firmware
from ports.
Finally use /etc/rc.d/netif start. That should find the Wi-Fi network
and it should be configured. After that you can use kismet.
