I have been trying to configure a HP Pavilion dv5000(5210us) laptop to connect
to a WEP network.  I have tried OBSD 5.2 and CURRENT without success using WEP
but can connect with WPA --personal hotspot.


The network interfaces I have
tried are 


Integrated wireless (bwi0 at pci3 dev 2 function 0 "Broadcom
BCM4318" rev 0x02: apic 1 int 21) 


USB adapter (rum0 at uhub0 port 1 "Ralink
Technology RT2573" EV 2.00/0.01 addr 2 MAC/BBP RT2573 (rev 0x2573a), RF
RT2528)

Both adapters fail to obtain a DHCP configuration with "No acceptable
DHCPOFFERS received" when using WEP but have no issue when configured for WPA.
I have used "ifconfig <interface> scan" to extract information  to specify the
channel and BSSID for my hostname.if WEP configuration.

Any ideas will be
appreciated.

Thanks.
