As you can see in the aboved mentioned URL, wpi and wpa_supplicant don't play 
nice. I had the same problem yesterday, setting wpi through ifconfig (WEP in 
my case) and the card just works.
I also had the bluetooth message, but Fonz doesn't seem to have that.

# ident /boot/kernel/if_wpi.ko
/boot/kernel/if_wpi.ko:
     $FreeBSD: src/sys/dev/wpi/if_wpi.c,v 1.5.2.2 2008/02/02 06:49:57 sam Exp 
$

My kernel is GENERIC with ULE scheduler rather then 4BSD. I want to 
investigate more this week, with a debug kernel and/or wpi in debug mode. 
Since RELENG_7 is probably thawed/frozen, is there patches from -current you 
can backport to have tested?

Leaving the rest of the email in tact so you have a full report.
