Ok, I'll check your suggestions!Ok, I'll check your suggestions asap!
Probably I'm wrong for the NDBGL, a lot of things are not clear to me
in the structure of the drivers sources (and not only in the
drivers... :) ).

The wireless connection is good and stable, and the DSM negotiates WPA
immediatly.
The throughput is good, and I can't see any delay during the file transfer.
I've not modified the standard configuration via atactl.

I missed the hw.iwi.debug via sysctl.
I'll check this too.
I have already modified and rebuilded the kernel adding IWI_DEBUG, and
when I start or stop the iwi interface, I can see messages about the
sync and the negotiation , but I haven't messages when the system
hangs.

Definitely not! Your help is precious everytime.
Have a nice holiday!
May I ask where you are going?
