That's because there are two separate drivers: ipw for the 21xx chipset, 
and iwi for the 22xx/29xx chipset. If you have a 22xx or a 29xx (which I 
assume since your previous email was about the T43), then those commands 
should be
# kldload -v if_iwi
and
# iwicontrol -i iwi0 -m bss -f /usr/local/share/iwi-firmware

Cheers,
Adrian
