I'm running FreeBSD 6.1 Release and after installing a CNet CWP-854 pci
wireless nic and running into some problems with the ral driver I was able to
fix that but now I can't connect to my wireless network.
If I run these commands one at a time:
# ifconfig ral0 inet 192.168.1.42 netmask 0xffffff00 ssid My-Network
or
# ifconfig ral0 inet DHCP ssid My-Network
Nothing happens and if I check it with:
# ifconfig ral0
I get this:
ral0: flags=8803<UP,BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::ff:fe00:700%ral0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
ether 02:00:00:00:07:00
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect
status: no carrier
ssid My-Network channel 1
authmode OPEN privacy OFF txpowmax 100 protmode CTS
status says no carrier I also notice channel 1 when I'm using channel 6 but I
even tried to add the channel to the ifconfig command and still didn't work.
Also where is says ether, I'm assuming this is the MAC address, is not the
right mac address for my wireless card, it should be 00-08-A1-A4-E0-EC. Right
now I'm running a complete open network just to test this which later on I will
use the "Access list" feature in my router which should not effect it.
