I have FreeBSD 3.3 installed on my laptop, and when configuring wi0 with ifconfig the OS freezes immediately. I get input/output error messages when configuring with wicontrol. So I tried to boot on the revised (as of 2000/03/03) PAO 3.4 floppies and switch to the console on Alt-F4. Here I can configure wi0 with wicontrol and ifconfig. The little green lamp goes on a blinks when I I try to ping around. However I never get ping replies and on the Alt-F2 screen I see wi0: Device timeout errors. I have tried setting the network name to "" and "saubernet", which is the network name I gave to the Apple Airport Base Station that I try to connect to. The APBS is set up to not do nat or dhcp - it just works as a bridge. Everything works fine in ms-windows - and I'm running out of ideas for what else to try to make it work in FreeBSD :-/ Please help.
