Hello,
I've posted the problem below to freebsd-mobile with zero (visible)
effect; maybe someone from freebsd-hackers has at least an idea for me
where to look into for further debugging; it should to stay that a
simple stupid Nokia works in a Wifi zone, while FreeBSD does not :-)
Thx for your time reading my problem

Subject: associated to AP (WEP mode) && no IP addr via DHCP
Hello,
I'm going frequently to a Greek restaurant in my town to have dinner
there or some red wine, and reading stuff;
the owner of the restaurant has a Wifi zone and gave me, as its best
client, the WEP-key to connect to Internet; the problem is that he does
not have the admin password of the AP (some else configured it) and so I
can't have a look into the config of the AP;
my /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf for the AP is:
# Restaurante Odyssey (2007-11-18)
#
network={
ssid="ConnectionPoint"
scan_ssid=0
key_mgmt=NONE
wep_tx_keyidx=0
wep_key0=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
}
and the interface associates fine:
# ifconfig ath0
ath0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
ether 00:15:af:b2:ae:e6
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 255.255.255.255
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (OFDM/36Mbps)
status: associated
ssid ConnectionPoint channel 11 (2462 Mhz 11g) bssid 00:01:e3:0e:97:99
authmode OPEN privacy ON deftxkey 1 wepkey 1:104-bit txpower 31.5
bmiss 7 scanvalid 60 protmode CTS burst roaming MANUAL
but a DHCP request does not give me any IP addr; with
# tcpdump -n -i ath0
it says:
19:01:01.603869 IP 0.0.0.0.68 > 255.255.255.255.67: BOOTP/DHCP, Request from

00:15:af:b2:ae:e6, length 300
this situation is already for monthes and I gave up and always use UMTS
if I want connect to Internet; until yesterday I was thinking in some
kind of MAC addr filter in the AP, but ....
yesterday I was there with a friend who has a Nokia mobile E51 device; I
gave him the key, he associated like me and got in the next second IP,
DNS and all was fine;
what is that for a problem? it is not ath0 related because my other
laptop with iwi0 does not get IP either;
what can I provide as information to nail this down?
Thx
matthias
