How to troubleshoot why ath0 can't connect to a passwordless wireless network?
I have a wireless network without password that my linux box easily connects to. On FreeBSD 'ifconfig ath0 up scan' command shows it. 'ifconfig ath0 ssid my-ssid up' brings interface to 'associated' state. But dhclient fails set it up. I have another device on the same system: ral0. It connect to this network without problems. What can I do to understand what may be a problem with ath0 in my case?

Yuri Perhaps it is just a typo but shouldn't it be 'ifconfig ath0 -monitor' instead of 'ifconfig ath0 -monotor' ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
