wifi is usable when I create a b138+ BE that has
nwam  disabled, and I manually configure the iwh0
wifi interface once the gui is up and running, with:

    ifconfig iwh0 plumb
    dladm connect-wifi -e ESSID -k wpa-key iwh0
    ifconfig iwh0 dhcp start


There also is a flag day message about nwam phase 1:

I tried nwam on current opensolaris bits with and without
the updated nwam gui but (most of the time) wifi didn't
work.  Disabling nwam and manual configuring it (with the
above commands) seems to work much better.
