I've US Robotics 5411 wireless pccard device.
It's identified as:
# pciconf -lv
*skip*
siba_bwn0@pci0:3:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x431814e4 chip=0x431814e4 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation'
device = 'BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller'
class = network
and from dmesg:
siba_bwn0: <Broadcom BCM4318 802.11b/g Wireless> mem 0xcc502000-0xcc503fff irq 20 at device 0.0 on cardbus0
bwn0 on siba_bwn0
bwn0: WLAN (chipid 0x4318 rev 9) PHY (analog 3 type 2 rev 7) RADIO (manuf 0x17f ver 0x2050 rev 8)
bwn0: DMA (32 bits)
I've build a kernel with bwn(4),
loaded the firmware module:
# kldstat

I created wlan device:

I got issued the ip address by my wireless router.
I see the card on the router:
DHCP Active IP Table
DHCP Server IP Address: 192.168.1.1
Client Host Name IP Address MAC Address Expires
192.168.1.104 00:c0:49:58:00:fe 23:58:54
I get /etc/resolve.conf set up automatically
(through the wired connection):
% cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by resolvconf
search cable.virginmedia.net
nameserver 194.168.4.100
nameserver 194.168.8.100
But I just can't get the wireless connection,
even to the router:
% ping 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: sendto: No route to host
^C
On the console I see:
RX decryption attempted (old 0 keyidx 0x1)
RX decryption attempted (old 0 keyidx 0x1)
RX decryption attempted (old 0 keyidx 0x1)
RX decryption attempted (old 0 keyidx 0x1)
firmware version (rev 410 patch 2160 date 0x751a time 0x7c0a)
Please help
What am I doing wrong?
What else can I try?
Many thanks
