Hi, I am having trouble connecting to a wireless router with my Atheros WIFI card. (PCI)
Running OpenBSD/AMD64 Current MP. (On current kernel supports my ath card.) dmesg can be found at http://www.sunnz.net/dmesg.txt (Tell me if you like an attachment instead) I have not yet made hostname.ath0, ifconfig (ath) itself does not seem to work. After boot up, log in, first thing I do is: # ifconfig ath0 nwid 624wn up; But when I check out if there is any connection (# ifconfig ath0): ath0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lladdr 00:0f:b5:4f:3f:42 groups: wlan media: IEEE802.11 autoselect (DS1) status: no network ieee80211: nwid 624w inet6 fe80::20f:b5ff:fe4f:3f42%ath0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 No network? I have been told to scan using # ifconfig -M ath0: ath0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lladdr 00:0f:b5:4f:3f:42 groups: wlan media: IEEE802.11 autoselect (DS1) status: no network ieee80211: nwid 624w nwid pokgai chan 9 bssid 00:09:5b:d6:1c:1a 57% 54M privacy,short_preamble,pbcc,short_slottime nwid Wireless chan 11 bssid 00:0f:b5:d9:8f:14 14% 54M short_preamble,pbcc,short_slottime nwid 624wn chan 1 bssid 00:60:b3:5e:86:61 34% 54M short_preamble,pbcc,short_slottime inet6 fe80::20f:b5ff:fe4f:3f42%ath0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 So my router is there: 624wn. BTW, the router is completely "open", no WEP, no WPA, no encryption. It is running DHCP server. So I even tried # dhclient ath0: DHCPDISCOVER on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7 DHCPDISCOVER on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 9 DHCPDISCOVER on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 10 DHCPDISCOVER on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 16 DHCPDISCOVER on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 10 DHCPDISCOVER on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8 DHCPDISCOVER on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 1 No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. So... I am stuck.
