Hi all. I bought a router yesterday and I'm trying to get OpenBSD working with 
it. It's a Broadcom airforce 802.11g and works with Windows and linux. I 
downloaded the bwi driver for OpenBSD and followed the man page for bwi. 
I created /etc/hostname.bwi0 and tried each example shown in the man page.
I started with dhcp NONE NONE NONE in my /etc/hostname.bwi0 and upon booting, 
the wireless led lit up a few times, but the screen showed "bwi0 .......no 
link".
I then tried "dhcp nwid mynetworkid", tried rebooting and got the same response.
I then tried "dhcp nwid mynetworkid nwkey mynetworkkey" and then tried "route 
flush" and "sh /etc/netstart bwi0". Same thing :( 
This is my first try at wireless with OpenBSD, so what am I doing wrong? 
Something simple, I'm sure, but I'm missing it whatever it is. 

Thanks for your help.

Mike
