As you suggested, I tried switching from dhcp to static ip, i.e, for ifconfig I gave #ifconfig ath0 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0 nwid <nwid> nwkey <nwkey> #more /etc/hostname.ath0 inet 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0 NONE nwid <nwid> nwkey <nwkey> #more /etc/gateway 192.168.1.1 #route flush #sh /etc/netstart ath0 The wireless indicator turns green and then I am also able to issue a scan #ifconfig ath0 scan However, ping to any ip-addr other 192.168.1.3 doesn't work. No internet connection :( I expected wireless configuration on openbsd to be much simpler but unfortunately I am not able to get past this :( -m _______________________________________________ Openbsd-newbies mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.theapt.org/listinfo/openbsd-newbies
