Walton Beach FL Check your wireless side of the router or the access point and note the range for DHCP addresses. Some offer addresses in x.x.x.100 - x.x.x.150 range, but there are a few with x.x.x.200 - x.x.x.254. You can take a fixed IP outside of those ranges then, eventually different from other fixed already allocated addresses to avoid overlapping and double addressing. I used this in hostname.xxx0 (note the sequence), but I'm not sure if order matters: inet x.x.x.x x.x.x.x NONE nwid *** wpakey

I spent a bit of time running ifconfig iwn0 scan (and getting frustrated) both with and without debug. What made it work may have been specifying dhcp, because the other bad news is that assigning a fixed IPv4 address still does not work: ifconfig will report the address as bound to the interface, but the router shows the connection as being at 0.0.0.0. Works OK to get to things on my own subnet, but not so well otherwise. Failing hostname.iwn0 (sanitized) below signature. This hostname.iwn0 was generated using ifconfig commands. -- Edward Ahlsen-Girard Ft Walton Beach, FL nwid *** wpakey inet 192.168.0.235 255.255.255.0 NONE
Re: iwn firmware load fails in Sony VPCCA25FX
How did you install the firmware? I've run once in troubles with an iwi0 interface because I messed up the .tgz firmware file unpack. I never used a laptop with wireless and OpenBSD so I was not aware that I need to download some firmware files. I don't remember what exactly I did wrong, the files were there but I got the same error with load. I saw the run of /usr/sbin/fw_update at boot time. I've deleted the firmware files that I've installed from /etc/firmware and run this script by hand. Then it was fine for iwi to load.
