Is your wireless network a non-authentication one, if it is wpa, wep, you may want to try follow the handbook[1]. I am not using rc.conf to start my wireless, but I think give the ssid in rc.conf may help, because there may be more wireless network in your area if it is a non-authentication one. ifconfig_ath0="ssid your_ssid_here DHCP" After you give the ssid, what the ifconfig output? Does the status change to associate? If yes, you can try: #dhclient ndis0 to get the ip from DHCP.
