Hello. I am trying to get an AboveCable (model: ACPC 2000-01) wireless
card connected to my home network with 40-bit Hex WEP Encryption on
FreeBSD 6.1.
# ifconfig wi0 inet 192.168.1.90 ssid ZWW wepmode on wepkey 0xea82552825
ifconfig: SIOCS80211: Invalid argument
Did I made anything wrong or miss something in the kernel? I have the
related lines in kernel:
driver wi
driver wlan
AboveCable wireless card uses PRIMSA II which is supported by driver wi.
The same card is tested working fine on the same network on Ubuntu Linux
(without needing of firmware or NDIS Wrapper)
dmesg is attached.
