Network devices don't have corresponding device nodes under /dev. They
can be seen with "ifconfig -a", and the wireless properties can be
examined and changed with iwconfig.
The messages may be different because you changed the debug level or
because the device is not brought up by some reason. By the way, it's
better to examine kernel messages with the dmesg command, because is
shows all messages, whereas syslog can suppress some of them.
