I interpret the above as meaning that the "Broadband" interface is the
dial-up interface, the "Local Area" interface is the real Ethernet
interface (not connected physically), the 1394 interface is the infrared
port as Ethernet- over-FireWire (fwe0), and the Dell 1450 card is indeed
the wireless interface. Looking through the boot messages from
FreeBSD 5.2.1, I don't see anything that looks like the Dell wireless
card being detected. I've looked through all the man pages for the
various interface types and haven't seen anything that looks appropriate.
If anyone reading this can suggest what to do next, please do.
What happens when you type "% ifconfig wi0 up" and then type "% ifconfig"?
Do you see the interface?
