Hi Viksa,

 From the 'scanpci -v', I can see the bar0 of the wifi card is not 
allocated a base memory address. And this can also be verified by 
'ifconfig -a', in which the mac address of the wifi card is all 0xff.

So I strongly suspect that you hit CR6419924. The fix of this CR has 
been integrated into snv_85, however is seems the fix doesn't work.

Pls send me the whole 'scanpci -v' and 'prtconf -v', then I can verify 
and maybe send you a workaround.

Thanks,
Brian
