More information coming.  You will find my dmesg attached (not verbose).
Note there are a couple of LOR, especially one related to ral0.

Here are the modules I loaded (either from loader(8) or manually):

I attached a "screenshot" when dhclient(8) is run for wi0, with
net.wlan.0.debug=0xffffffff.

Likewise, there is the debug output for ral0.  Although the outcome is
the same -- no packet seems to be sent -- debug messages are very
different.

Thanks.
