Thanks, Ken ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 2 Mar 2003 22:55:41 -0800 (PST) From: Kan Cai To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: ad-hoc wireless mode and ticks Hi, All: Feel a little confused with the ad-hoc mode set by "wicontrol -p 3", is it Lucent ad-hoc mode instead of the standard IEEE ad-hoc mode (IBSS). After I use "-p 3" option, it cannot talk to Linux/Windows ad-hoc wireless station. But if I set it to "-p 4", it can do the job. However, I cannot find this option in wicontrol man page or anywhere. Could somebody explain me what's going on here? Moreover, could somebody give me a hint what is the corresponding function in FreeBSD like "rdtscl" function in Linux, which returns me the cpu ticks elapsed?
