Daniel,
Sorry, i'm wrong about that.
The hidden ssid ready driver is in OpenBSD (see WI_RID_ENH_SECURITY in if_wi_ieee.h).
The NetBSD porting is just an auto rate fix.
The ifconfig support is in 6-CURRENT (or in the patch for 5.X).

Luiz,
NetBSD 2.0 have mode HIDDEN SSID in ifconfig and wi(4) ? Who is porting the NetBSD wi driver ? Has a page of the patch? Has some HACK to wi driver on FreeBSD as that one that force TX RATE:

*wi hostap fix, kind of*
I spent a few hours tinkering (tampering?) with this driver, and have a fix. I've verified that it works: my download speed went up from 170 kbytes/sec to 470 kbytes/sec, which is what I'd expect on an 11Mbps network. If anyone's interested, here it is: The Intersil manual on page 4-28 says that transmit packets need to have their TxRate field filled in with 10,20,55 or 110, depending on the transmission speed. The 4.X driver sets the field tx_frame.wi_tx_rate in function wihap_check_tx(), called from wi_start(). The 5.X driver calls this field frmhdr.wi_tx_rate, and leaves it zero. If you want to run at 11MBps, add a line
frmhdr.wi_tx_rate = 110;
in wi_start(), just before the call to wi_write_bap(). (Obviously, this is just a cheesy hack. The real code would have to find the actual tx rate. I just want to point out where the problem lies).
