Wireless card is Intel Pro/Wireless 3945 . (In Windows XP it works from this Windows I am sending this mail via Wireless access) Any help most welcome. thanks in advance dhanesh
You need some lines i /etc/rc.conf wpa_supplicant_enable="YES" # is for security, try without first wlans_wpi0="wlan0" # mine is wlans_iwn0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP" / _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
