Thanks...

The machine running windows is set to adhoc mode.
ssid is cat
On FreeBSD machine, I type:
----------------------------------
ipwcontrol -f /usr/local/share/ipw-firmware/ipw-i.fw
ifconfig ipw0 mediaopt adhoc
ifconfig ipw0 ssid cat
ifconfig ipw0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
ifconfig ipw0 up
-------------------------------------
the led of wireless is on.
then the windows machine says that it has detected a wireless network..
I choose join..and it said that the signal is very good.
But the windows machine can not receive any packet...and it was sending packet
continual.
when I
---------------------
sysctl net.wlan.debug=-1
sysctl net.wlan.0.debug=-1
--------------------
the first tty said that:
"discard frame, not to bss"
continual
-------------------------------------
I am sure that my wireless card is good, and the windows machine's setting is
right,
because the wireless worked when I run Windows.
My machine is
IBM thinkpad T42
and my wireless card is
ipw0: <Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 MiniPCI> mem 0xc0210000-0xc0210fff irq
11 at device 2.0 on pci2
ipw0: Ethernet address:xxxxxxxxxx
