I discover a "new" way to configure network interface, with wlan I have tried to put in my rc.conf: wlans_ath0=wlan0 ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP" And .. it works, with a WPA2 configuration and also with only DHCP. Conclusion 8-0-CURRENT-200809 work out of the box for the eeepc 701. The only documentation I have found is http://people.freebsd.org/~sam/BSDCan2005.pdf .
