Hello all, i am trying to configure a hostap access point with an OpenBSD 4.6
machine, everything *seems* fine (i can ping the address) but my status says
"no network". I have tried this on 2 different machines with 3 different
network adaptors, I have also tried with/out WPA and many different mode
options all with the same "no network" status. All 3 network adaptors are
working and in use daily.

$ sh /etc/netstart iwi0 (have also tried restart all of networking AND
rebooting)
