I have a urtw wireless usb adapter and the installer correctly identified it and identified my home network. However, after the installation I was unable to connect to my network, and I found that it was caused by the fact that the line in /etc/rc.conf for DHCP was as follows:
ifconfig_wlan0="WPADHCP" there should be a space between WPA and DHCP, and I fixed the problem by changing the line to this: ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP" >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: The installer needs to put a space between WPA and DHCP in the following line in /etc/rc.conf: ifconfig_wlan0="WPADHCP" >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
