Then I umounted, took the USB stick to new computer with MSI Z77 MPOWER motherboard. I booted that USB stick, escaped to loader prompt, unload and boot /boot/kernelre/kernel got the same error when running "dhclient re0". Now I also have to update NetBSD-current and then build a Linux installation. Linux may offer a better chance of configuring wireless adapters. I was hoping a fix to the re(4) bug could make it for FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE but am not betting on it. Tom
