Everything seems to running fine but I am unable to access the internet via the wireless card. It can ping the router and other computers on the network but fails to ping anything outside the router. I have set the defaultrouter in rc.conf and the wireless card seems to be configured correctly when I run ifconfig. Here is some output from my laptop which will hopefully be of some use: # ping -c5 192.168.1.1 PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=254 time=4.132 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=254 time=3.603 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=254 time=3.874 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=254 time=3.985 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=254 time=3.814 ms --- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 3.603/3.882/4.132/0.176 ms # ping -c5 www.google.com PING www.l.google.com (66.249.87.99): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: No route to host ping: sendto: No route to host ping: sendto: No route to host ping: sendto: No route to host ping: sendto: No route to host --- www.l.google.com ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss # ifconfig bfe0: flags=8802 mtu 1500 options=8 ether aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa media: Ethernet autoselect (none) status: no carrier lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 iwi0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.100 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet6 fe80::xxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx%iwi0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 ether bb:bb:bb:bb:bb:bb media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (DS/5.5Mbps) status: associated ssid baz 1:baz channel 11 authmode OPEN powersavemode OFF powersavesleep 100 rtsthreshold 2312 protmode CTS txpower 100 wepmode OFF weptxkey 1 # netstat -rn Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 0 lo0 192.168.1 link#3 UC 0 0 iwi0 192.168.1.1 00:06:25:1a:c9:4e UHLW 0 28 iwi0 1027 192.168.1.100 bb:bb:bb:bb:bb:bb UHLW 0 2 lo0 Internet6: Destination Gateway Flags Netif Expire ::1 ::1 UH lo0 fe80::%lo0/64 fe80::1%lo0 U lo0 fe80::1%lo0 link#2 UHL lo0 fe80::%iwi0/64 link#3 UC iwi0 fe80::xxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx%iwi0 bb:bb:bb:bb:bb:bb UHL lo0 ff01::/32 ::1 U lo0 ff02::%lo0/32 ::1 UC lo0 ff02::%iwi0/32 link#3 UC iwi0 Spacings may be a bit strange above, if you would like it as an attachment just ask :) Thanks, James Feeder ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?
