I am undoubtedly doing something very wrong here. I downloaded a driver
for a Ralink2870 chip and installed it. Seems to work fine.
I placed this in my '/etc/rc.conf' file:
### Wireless ###
wlans_rt28700=3D"wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0=3D"DHCP WPA"
This was all ready there:
ifconfig_nfe0=3D"DHCP"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
=46rom the /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf file:
# allow frontend (e.g., wpa_cli) to be used by all users in 'wheel'
group
ctrl_interface=3D/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=3Dwheel
# # home network; allow all valid ciphers
network=3D{
ssid=3D"MyNET"
#psk=3D"SECRET"
psk=3Dxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
key_mgmt=3DWPA-PSK
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, when I insert the USB Network adapter and run "ifconfig", this is
the output:

I cannot figure out why or how it is getting the address: 208.68.139.38
It should be using 192.168.1.104 or something in that range.
