I am trying to configure my laptop for wireless connectivity to a
broadband connection.
these are the steps I followed, I don't know what I made wrong, please
help to fix the issue..
1 ) To /boot/loader.conf
if_wpi_load = "YES"
wlan_load = "YES"
wlan_amrr_load = "YES"
firmware_load = "YES"
wpifw_load = "YES"
legal.intel_wpi.licence_ack=1
...
3) then I checked the out put of ifconfig
it showing wpi0 but no carriers for the device
I am using FreeBSD-7.2 i386 release. 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.
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"
The virtual wlan0 was added for FreeBSD 8. For 7.2, it should still be
done the old way (using the actual card, wpi0 in this case).
