Add ifconfig_ndis0="WPA DHCP" to /etc/rc.conf, create /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf that is appropriate for your wireless network(s), then use /etc/rc.d/netif start ndis0 to connect to your wireless network. ifconfig doesn't list any wireless networks: hp010# ifconfig ndis0 list scan But using wpa_cli does show wireless networks: hp010# wpa_cli wpa_cli v0.5.8 Copyright (c) 2004-2007, Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> and contributors This program is free software.
