It seems to work perfectly on some systems but I had also problems with it. I did not go deeper where the problem is but replaced this with a very simple script containing just the ifconfig and route commands to set my network configuration. I have no sleep statement in there and it works fine with the Netgear card. David. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
