I have installed FreeBSD on a Desktop Machine with a TI 1410 PCI Cardbus Bridge and an Avaya Silver Wireless Network Card. The card connects perfectly to a D-Link Access Point in Debian and even in Windows XP. However, in FreeBSD there is "no carrier" no matter what I seem to try. Troubleshooting help would be much appreciated. Device seems to come up with: ifconfig wi0 inet 192.168.4.8 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid HOME wepmode ON wepkey 1234567890 dmesg is as follows: Copyright (c) 1992-2003 The FreeBSD Project.
