Are you running the latest current?
This is a 5350?
Can you post your configuration (rc.conf)?

If you have a 'ifconfig wlan0 channel 7' somewhere, drop it, I'm aware
of an issue regarding fixed channels, but found no clean solution yet.

You might also want to try 'ifconfig wlan0 -ht', it might be related
to the recent introduction of 11n support for iwn(4).
