I'm having trouble making wep work. (I'm not subscribed to freebsd-mobile, btw) The /etc/start_if.ath0 file says ifconfig ath0 ssid "name" wepmode on wepkey 0x12345.... and my /etc/rc.conf says ifconfig_ath0="inet 192.168.1.4 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="192.168.1.1" I'm getting "no route to host" messages when I try to ping the router. If I disable wep then everything works, but I'd rather know how to fix this problem. This worked just as it is on freebsd 5.3. I have wlan_wep loaded as shown here squiggy# kldstat -v | egrep -e 'wlan|ath' 27 ath_hal 42 ath_rate 43 pci/if_ath 44 cardbus/if_ath 218 wlan_wep 219 wlan I did not see anything on the support pages on freebsd.org to indicate that there was no known problem. Thanks, -r
