I just added a pair of wavelan cards to my network and found them quite easy to use with freebsd out of the box. However, interoperability with one in windows is nonexistant. No settings seems to allow them to communicate. I have seen several posts referring to changing the ad-hoc mode to BSS, but this only seems to disable the cards completely (all led's turn off). What am I missing here? What network type should I choose in windows? And why does the encryption in windows always seem to jump back to alphanumeric keys even when I am using (and originally input) hexadecimal keys. I only ask here because I am sure someone here has figured this out before.
