Hey all, I was wondering if some kind soul could help me get my
Wireless net connection working. I am currently running FreeBSD 4.8
and whenever I try to start up my wi0 I keep getting "wi0: watchdog
timeout" messages. Now I've searched around a bit and I've tried the
following.
I set hw.pcic.intr_path="1" in my loader.conf. I've tried setting
my card to different irq's (set pccardd_flags="-I- i 9" in rc.conf, 9
seemed to be the only other free irq) but to no avail so it's back to
being assigned to irq 3. When I grep through my dmesg, nothing else
seems to be using irq 3 either, so I think that is ok. I use the
following "ifconfig wi0 ssid my_net wep wepkey my_key inet 192.168.1.110
netmask 255.255.255.0". I try running "route add default 192.168.1.1",
which seems to do very little. Anyone have any ideas what I'm missing?
Also I tried connecting to my router through fxp0. I can ping
192.168.1.1 just fine but if I try to ping, say, yahoo.com I get a
hostname lookup failure. This is my first time using FreeBSD so perhaps
I've not configured my network properly? I don't know just throwing
that out there.
Thanks in advance,
Bruce
