You mean remove the card totally ?
I triedto remove the ifconfig_wi0=DHCP in rc.conf
and ifconfig the card manually (I had a wicontrol -i wi0 -q SSID in
/etc/rc.local)

but I then get :no carrier in ifconfig wi0.

Finally I got a stack backtrace "lock order reversal". Uhh, it
seems a mess.

And even if I get it working by manually configuring the card,
what is the problem, who is gonna fix it and when?
