Re: Unable to join open WEP wireless network

Dear Brett, Thank you. I don't think I tried _ifconfig urtwn0 ssid "" down_. I will try it next time I am in a similar situation. Sincerely, Xianwen On Wed, Feb 7, 2018 at 9:11 PM, Brett Lymn wrote: > On Fri, Feb 02, 2018 at 07:34:22AM -0700, Andy Ruhl wrote: > > > > I

Re: Unable to join open WEP wireless network

Dear Andy, Thank you. Unfortunately the trouble with the open WEP network happened while I was in a conference earlier today. The conference ended and I no longer have access to the particular network. I cannot tcydump. Yes, I had tried without -nwkey. You gave a good tip about "mode 11g". I

Dear NetBSD users, I am having trouble connecting NetBSD to an open WEP wireless network, called "ks-guest". Because my Android mobile phone is able to connect to "ks-guest", the network is functioning. "ifconfig iwi0 list scan" gives the following output: SSID BSSID
