:ifconfig I gave
:
:#ifconfig ath0 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0 nwid <nwid> nwkey <nwkey>
:#more /etc/hostname.ath0
:inet 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0 NONE nwid <nwid> nwkey <nwkey>
:#more /etc/gateway
:192.168.1.1
:#route flush
:#sh /etc/netstart ath0

:The wireless indicator turns green and then I am also able to issue a scan
:
:#ifconfig ath0 scan
:
:However, ping to any ip-addr other 192.168.1.3 doesn't work. No internet
:connection :(
