I admit that hardware is not one of my stronger points, but I would
think that the fact that the iwn0 device shows up in the output of
"pciconf -vl":

iwn0 at pci0:3:0:0:        class=0x028000 card=0x12118086 chip=0x42378086 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Intel Corporation'
    device     = 'PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN [Shiloh] Network Connection'
    class      = network

gives reason to believe that the device is attached via PCI, rather
than USB.  I hope.  :-}

But I appreciate the suggestion.

Peace,
david
