Hi,

I am trying to get my WLAN running with FBSD 5.3. I have a
"PRISM 802.11g Wireless Adapter (3890)" and set it up with the NDISulator.
After some hours of work I got the following response from "ifconfig ndis0"
(MAC-Adress and SSID x'd):

ndis0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet6 fe80::260:b3ff:fe93:f5f%ndis0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
        inet 192.168.2.103 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.2.255
        ether 00:60:xx:xx:xx:xx
        media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect
        status: associated
        ssid XX-WLAN 1:XX-WLAN
        channel 6 authmode OPEN powersavemode OFF powersavesleep 100
        rtsthreshold 2312 protmode CTS
        wepmode OFF weptxkey 1

This looks good, I think. But, I get no connection the my WLAN. "ping
192.168.2.1" (the router) responses with "host is down". What else could i
do now? Why is status "associated" without getting a connection to the
network? Might be the 54Mbit speed? Please help,

Peter
