Hi there,
I have a Thinkpad T41 with FreeBSD 7.2/i386
With dmesg i see the wlan card:
ath0: Atheros 5212 mem 0xc021-0xc021 irq 11 at device 2.0 on
pci2 ath0: [ITHREAD]
ath0: WARNING: using obsoleted if_watchdog interface
ath0: Ethernet address: 00:05:4e:48:14:ab

I read the handbook, and this is me /boot/loader.conf:
if_ath_load=YES
wlan_scan_ap_load=YES
wlan_scan_sta_load=YES
wlan_wep_load=YES
wlan_ccmp_load=YES
wlan_tkip_load=YES
This entry i made in the rc.conf for the ath0:
ifconfig_ath0=inet 192.168.0.13 netmask 255.255.255.0
Now ifconfig ath0 say:
ath0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST metric 0 mtu

and this is me /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf:

ifconfig ath0 list scan found me accesspoint:

Now I connect:

but, now ping, now open a Internetsite in firefox, nothing.
But i can go for a DHCP-IP:
goofy# dhclient ath0
DHCPREQUEST on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
DHCPACK from 192.168.0.2
bound to 192.168.0.234 -- renewal in 43200 seconds.
When I ping the DHCP-Server 192.168.0.2, i have 100% packet loss.
The Laptop works finde with LAN, but not with WLAN.
___
Is LAN still configured for this network? (Is the laptop confused
about which interface to ping through?)
Are the contents in /etc/resolv.conf correct?
Was the gateway properly set?
(I expect that dhcp set the DNS and gateway values correctly; but it's
always good to check.)
Good luck.
