The interface isn't in the UP state. At least with the iwi driver, the NIC won't associate to the AP until the interface is brought up. Usually this is done the first time something tries to send a packet (typically dhclient). You can also make it associate by giving the "up" parameter to ifconfig. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
