Hello all, i am trying to configure a hostap access point with an OpenBSD 4.6 machine, everything *seems* fine (i can ping the address) but my status says "no network". I have tried this on 2 different machines with 3 different network adaptors, I have also tried with/out WPA and many different mode options all with the same "no network" status. All 3 network adaptors are working and in use daily. # uname -a OpenBSD megalos.inet.net 4.6 GENERIC#0 i386
