Hi, http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/laptop/wireless/wificonfig/ instructs us to use :
# wificonfig -i ath0 createprofile essid=mywifi encryption=WEP wepkey1=12345 ..to create a profile to accommodate WEP WLAN. However the "-i" arg is not required. The command should be: # wificonfig createprofile essid=mywifi encryption=WEP wepkey1=12345 mywifi and 12345 being replaced with your SSID and WEP key respectively. Example: # ./wificonfig createprofile essid=MYWLAN encryption=WEP wepkey1=A25CFEF88643BB6262BC164BB1 ..this creates a profile that you can refer to on subsequent occasions. Like.. # ./wificonfig -i ath0 connect MYWLAN ./wificonfig: connecting to profile 'MYWLAN' ..this uses the profile created earlier to set the connection info. #ifconfig ath0 plumb ...this plumbs the interface in # ifconfig ath0 dhcp ....this configures it over DHCP fro a DHCP server on the network.
