I have two primary WAPs that I connect to on my FreeBSD desktop, my rc.conf contains these entries: ifconfig_ipw0="ssid wap1 DHCP" ifconfig_ipw0="ssid wap2 DHCP" The problem is that depending on which place I am at, I have to boot up, have networking fail, edit the rc.conf file, comment out the WAP I am not using and uncomment the WAP I am using and either restart netif or reboot. I have to do this everytime I go to the other wap. That OS from the NorthWestern US seems to keep a list of WAPs and will detect whenever you are in the vicinity of one and use the available one. How can I get FreeBSD to do the same? C
