I am undoubtedly doing something very wrong here. I downloaded a driver
for a Ralink2870 chip and installed it. Seems to work fine.

I placed this in my '/etc/rc.conf' file:

### Wireless ###
wlans_rt28700="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP WPA"

This was all ready there:

ifconfig_nfe0="DHCP"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

From the /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf file:

# allow frontend (e.g., wpa_cli) to be used by all users in 'wheel'
group
        ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
        ctrl_interface_group=wheel

#      # home network; allow all valid ciphers
network={
        ssid="MyNET"
        #psk="SECRET"
        psk=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, when I insert the USB Network adapter and run "ifconfig", this is
the output:

fwe0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        options=8<VLAN_MTU>

I cannot figure out why or how it is getting the address: 208.68.139.38
It should be using 192.168.1.104 or something in that range.
