I just recently bought an N900 from US and I have the same problem here. wlan did not work straight out of the box. Did a dmesg and the lines are exactly the same as freyr's. Then reflashed to latest global firmware and it is still showing the same error message. Is this a firmware or hardware issue?

does any wise wizard here know if I can test/sync/flash/poke the wifi module somehow?

I would hate to have to ship my unit from Iceland to the USA for service if I can fix this via firmware.
