Joerg,

I've downloaded the 2.3 firmware, because iwicontrol complained about  a 
missing iwi-boot.fw in version 3.0. 

The version 2.3 contains this files:
ipw-2.3-boot.fw
ipw-2.3-bss.fw
ipw-2.3-bss_ucode.fw
ipw-2.3-ibss.fw
ipw-2.3-ibss_ucode.fw
ipw-2.3-sniffer.fw
ipw-2.3-sniffer_ucode.fw

iwicontrol complained again about some missing files, so I've renamed them:
iwi-boot.fw
iwi-sniffer.fw
iwi-ucode-sniffer.fw
iwi-bss.fw
iwi-ucode-bss.fw
iwi-ibss.fw
iwi-ucode-ibss.fw

iwcontrol iwi0 -d /usr/libdata/iwi_firmware works now without complaining, but 
I can still get no connection to my WLAN router (A ping wasn't replied). Is 
there any possibility to check, if the WLAN adapter works now correctly 
(without having an additional WLAN device available)?

Thomas
