Hi all, I have bought myself a wireless network card (Linksys WPC11 VER 3), it
is detected by the kernel and it shows up in ifconfig as wi0.
However I cant seem to get it to work, I have followed the instructions
in the hand book, it works fine if I disable wep on the wireless access
point, however with it enabled it doesn't work at all.
Could someone give me a brief outline of how to get wep working?
If you need any other data, I would be happy to help.


Thanks
Mick

Mick,

Try something like this in /etc/rc.conf
ifconfig_wi0="inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.xxx ssid SOMESSID wepmode on wepkey 0xXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX


Where SOMESSIS is the name of your WAP and
where the 0xXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX is the wep key (128 in this case)
