As already said, I did that and the wicontrol output between the good and the
bad situation doesn't differ in no way.


Warner, I applied the patch and no change. I cannot ping the 
server from the notebook nor other direction . When I do a 
tcpdump -i wi0 
and then ping my notebook in the WLAN all I see is:
www# tcpdump -i wi0
tcpdump: listening on wi0

How does one specify the commands in the ifconfig interface?
This is what I used to invoke from /etc/rc.local:

/usr/sbin/wicontrol -i wi0 -n kuku
/usr/sbin/wicontrol -i wi0 -p 1
/usr/sbin/wicontrol -i wi0 -c 1
/usr/sbin/wicontrol -i wi0 -s bgate
ifconfig wi0 192.168.254.1 netmask 255.255.255.0  

Maybe I'm doing something essentially wrong that worked under 4.4
(first release that had netgraph, I believe) and now has to
be done differently.
