Dear Misc,
I am pulling my hairs out, the last few days I've been trying to install
OpenBSD on my Dell Latitude D510. I've disabled the internal wireless
BCM card and instead put in a Netgear WPN511. -First I tried 4.1 release
which meant I had to download the firmware to get it recognized but it
kept saying "no network" so I went and downloaded a snapshot instead
(dated 20070924). -Same thing: "no network".
I have verified the card itself is working (in a redmond based O/S) but
in OpenBSD it keeps saying "no network". WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?????
Here's some info:
the actual router is a Netgear DG834PN.
This is my WPN511
$ ifconfig -m ath0

interestingly it DOES pick up the nwid (mywifinet) when I do the
following)
$ sudo ifconfig ath0 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0
$ ifconfig ath0

When putting in a WPN111 I get a uath0 and it works!
$ sudo ifconfig uath0 192.168.0.11 netmask 255.255.255.0
