ifconfig iwh0 dhcp start
There also is a flag day message about nwam phase 1:
http://static.opensolaris.org/on/flagdays/pages/20100225200206.html
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.
I've got the same trouble. It seems particularly bad with iwh -- it
looks like nwamd just doesn't wait long enough for the connection to
occur, or that there's something funky about the
driver.
Other error messages I see in the b138 nwam + nwam gui case:

A problem with the wpad process not running??
svcs -x doesn't list problems, but I noticed that
some strange messages are logged to

with iwk I get distinctly different entries in /var/adm/messages:
here's what's shown when I disconnect the cable:

However, I can't connect manually to my ssid with dladm connect-wifi. It
just comes back with an error:
