I have a problem setting up Intel PRO / Wireless 2200BG on Asus A3500N machine running FreeBSD 6.0. I tried to follow instructions at http://damien.bergamini.free.fr/ipw/ipw-freebsd.html but they are ok up till some point. I've installed iwi-firmware as needed and dmesg shows right wireless adapted at booting. First problem: No iwicontrol installed and I can't find anywhere. But the interface is up anyway. Second problem: sysctl dev.iwi.0.radio shown my card is running but the led on the computer is not on - so is it really on? I guess yes if ifconfig iwi0 returns: iwi0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::212:f0ff:fe86:724c%iwi0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 255.255.255.255 ether 00:12:f0:86:72:4c media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect status: no carrier ssid mcstudio channel 1 authmode OPEN privacy ON deftxkey UNDEF txpowmax 100 protmode CTS Final problem when I tried to connect to AP by: ifconfig iwi0 ssid mcstudio wepkey 0x6f73696f6c wepmode on I received: ifconfig: SIOCS80211: Invalid argument What's that how to solve these problems?? Thanks Jakub Rzeznik
