    What is the output of iwicontrol iwi0 -r ?

    Damien Bergamini just commited a few fixes yesterday for the iwi(4)
    driver in -CURRENT.

    The behaviour is still unworkable : I can use tcpdump(8) on the
    interface and see various incoming ARP requests or VRRP multicast
    packets and I can see outgoing packets with bpf(4), but I think they
    don't leave the wireless adatpter as I can't see any packets from it
    on peers.

    As far as I can tell, this driver is not longer updated, the developpement
    is done in BSD source trees (look at the file modification date).
