Hello. I have an Atheros PCI card in my firewall/gateway machine. It seems fully configured because the clients see a good strong signal but I can't get a dhcp lease from it. I'm not bothering with WEP just yet. I followed the instructions found here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-wireless.html I ran these commands: sysctl net.link.ether.bridge.enable=1 sysctl net.link.ether.bridge.config="wi0,vr0" sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 The ath0 is bridged with the vr0 which is the internal NIC. dhcpd is running on vr0. I have the following in my ipf.conf: pass in quick on ath0 from any to any pass out quick on ath0 from any to any un /root# wicontrol ath0 NIC serial number: [ ] Station name: [ unaligned.com ] SSID for IBSS creation: [ wap ] Current netname (SSID): [ wap ] Desired netname (SSID): [ wap ] Current BSSID: [ 00:0f:3d:ae:36:e0 ] Channel list: [ ffe ] IBSS channel: [ 11 ] Current channel: [ 11 ] Comms quality/signal/noise: [ 0 13 0 ] Promiscuous mode: [ Off ] Intersil-Prism2 based card: [ 1 ] Port type (1=BSS, 3=ad-hoc): [ 6 ] MAC address: [ 00:0f:3d:ae:36:e0 ] TX rate (selection): [ 11 ] TX rate (actual speed): [ 11 ] RTS/CTS handshake threshold: [ 2312 ] Create IBSS: [ Off ] Access point density: [ 1 ] Power Mgmt (1=on, 0=off): [ 0 ] Max sleep time: [ 100 ] WEP encryption: [ Off ] TX encryption key: [ 1 ] Encryption keys: [ ][ ][ ][ ] My entire ifconfig: fxp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 options=8<VLAN_MTU> inet 24.98.219.30 netmask 0xfffffe00 broadcast 255.255.255.255 ether 00:03:47:0b:74:7b media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active ath0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 10.0.0.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255 ether 00:0f:3d:ae:36:e0 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet DS/11Mbps <hostap> (autoselect <hostap>) status: associated ssid mycod 1:mycod channel 11 authmode OPEN powersavemode OFF powersavesleep 100 rtsthreshold 2312 protmode CTS wepmode OFF weptxkey 1 vr0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255 ether 00:d0:68:01:55:a3 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active plip0: flags=108810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
