The underlying device is no longer used directly but instead wlanX devices are cloned with ifconfig. This requires changes to rc.conf files. For example, change: ifconfig_ath0="WPA DHCP" to wlans_ath0=wlan0 ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP" see rc.conf(5) for more details. In addition, mergemaster of /etc/rc.d is highly recommended. Simultaneous update of userland and kernel wouldn't hurt either. As part of the multi-bss changes the wlan_scan_ap and wlan_scan_sta modules were merged into the base wlan module. All references to these modules (e.g. in kernel config files) must be removed. hope this helps, /jT lk dev On Tue, Aug 12, 2008 at 11:52 AM, wrote: > I forgot to mention that I read the following thread before posting my > question: > > http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/current/2008-06/msg00556.html > Followed the instructions to create wlan0 but kept getting the same > errors. > > regards, > Rohit > > > > > > "Rohit Tripathi" > Sent by: owner-freebsd-current@freebsd.org > 08/12/2008 11:40 AM > > To > freebsd-current@freebsd.org > cc > > Subject > [iwn driver] SIOCS80211 error on 4965AGN > > > > > > > Hi, > > I configured an amd64 kernel with iwn option and set the license > variable in loader.conf.
