To use dladm, you don't need to create any profile.. Just try to connect this broadcom ap then. Following: #dladm create-secobj -c wpa <security object name - anyone you like> ...input your wpa key here #dladm connect-wifi -e Broadcom -k <security object name> then, you just need get a dhcp address or assign a static IP.
