I seem to have everything setup properly. But I must always: # wpa_supplicant -i ath0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf # dhclient ath0 ...as root, in order to get my wireless card up and running. I would assume there is an rc.conf setting I am missing... just cant seem to find it. Was using: ifconfig_ath0="DHCP" in my rc.conf before setting up wpa_supplicant. But that causes an infinite loop now. I am running 6.0-BETA1 i386 as of the 23rd. I have a mini-PCI atheros card and it is not removable. Therefore no attach/detach events. Thanks. -- Regards, Eric
