'acquiring device failed' means the device is not responding to even the most basic access to registers that should always be accessible. It's as if communication on the PCI bus has been cut for some reason, of as if the device had lost power and is turned off. The wifi driver is assuming to run with working hardware and a working PCI bus. If those do not work then there is a fundamental issue that the driver cannot fix. > Aug 22 23:56:24 cogito /bsd: iwm0: acquiring device failed > Aug 22 23:56:24 cogito /bsd: iwm0: acquiring device failed > Aug 22 23:56:24 cogito /bsd: iwm0: timeout waiting for master > Aug 22 23:57:12 cogito ntpd[29731]: DNS lookup tempfail > Aug 22 23:57:26 cogito /bsd: iwm0: device timeout > Aug 22 23:57:26 cogito /bsd: iwm0: acquiring device failed > Aug 22 23:57:26 cogito /bsd: iwm0: acquiring device failed > Aug 22 23:57:26 cogito /bsd: iwm0: timeout waiting for master > Aug 22 23:58:22 cogito ntpd[29731]: DNS lookup tempfail > Aug 22 23:58:28 cogito ntpd[29731]: DNS lookup tempfail > Aug 22 23:58:44 cogito /bsd: iwm0: device timeout > Aug 22 23:58:44 cogito /bsd: iwm0: acquiring device failed > Aug 22 23:58:44 cogito /bsd: iwm0: acquiring device failed > Aug 22 23:58:44 cogito /bsd: iwm0: timeout waiting for master > Aug 22 23:58:44 cogito /bsd: iwm0: could not initialize hardware
