Hi Ralf,
From the wicontrol man page: http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=wicontrol&apropos=0

-A 1|2|3
[Prism2/Symbol only] Sets the authentication type for a
given in-
terface. Permitted values are 1 (Open System
Authentication), 2
(Shared Key Authentication) and 3 (104-bit Shared Key
Authentica-
tion). The 104-bit Shared Key Authentication mode is only
avail-
able on Symbol cards. When Open System Authentication is used, any station may
associ-
ate with an access point. In effect, no authentication is
done.
Note, however, that if WEP is enabled on the access point,
sta-
tions will be able to associate with the access point but
will be
unable to send and receive data packets unless they have
the cor-
rect WEP key.
With Shared Key Authentication, on the other hand, only
stations
that have the same WEP key as the access point may
associate with
it.
The default is 1 (Open System Authentication). Note: It is not valid to enable Shared Key Authentication
when no
valid WEP keys have been defined.
---This is what I'm looking for, but it doesn't seem to be implemented on any of the other wireless drivers. ipw, iwi, and ral all seem to be affected. If you try to use the above switch, the drivers report that the function is unavailable.
Thanks, Steve

Moin, how about the ath driver ?
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ath&arch=i386&sektion=4
says "ath supports hardware WEP". It's what you meant?
