I'm trying to get my toshiba laptop's wireless connection configured on freebsd 6.0 stable. It's got an intel pro wireless 2200bg card. I'm trying to connect to a dhcp wireless network with 64 bit wep. Here's what I've done: I installed iwi-firmware-2.4_2.tbz as a package me@myputer$ dmesg | grep iwi iwi0: <Inter(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG> mem 0xb8006000-0xb8006fff irq 22 at device 2.0 on pci6 iwi0: Ethernet address: <ethernet_address> me@myputer$ kldload wlan_wep me@myputer$ iwicontrol -i iwi0 -d /boot/firmware -m bss me@myputer$ ifconfig iwi0 10.1.10.109 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid <my_ssid> wepmode on wepkey <my_webkey> iwi0: fatal errorme@myputer$ iwi0: device configuration failed if I do 'ifconfig iwi0', i get: ---snip-- inet 10.1.10.109 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.1.10.255 ether <my_ethernet_address> media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect status: no carrier ssid <my_ssid> channel 1 authmode OPEN privacy ON deftxkey UNDEF wepkey 1:104-bit txpowmax 100 protmode CTS Any help would be awesome thanks
