Hello all! for sure i got
*[root at mail /etc]# uname -a
FreeBSD mail.emoxam.ru 8.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT #2: Sun Apr 12
13:26:05 M
SD 2009 root at mail.emoxam.ru:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CUSTOM1 i386
[root at mail /etc]#*
first of all i got my FreeBSd-way begins no so long ago, i may not know
all the trick, so why am i here!
pass all the trick OS set to me i'm totaly stucked with wi-fi setup!
So DLink AP got _*WEP encription, 64bit, HEX, 10 symbols.*_
Just because handbook didn't help me - i don't know how to make wifi
works right.
and because i read a lot o forums i choose that way:
*[root at mail /etc]# ifconfig ral0
ral0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 2290
ether 00:21:91:82:31:9b
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (autoselect)
status: no carrier
[root at mail /etc]#*
*ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ral0* (was stealed from one post on the
third party forum)
that man ifconfig and so on.. i choose this:
*[root at mail /etc]# ifconfig wlan0 wepmode on weptxkey 1 wepkey
1:0x0F00FF00F0 authmode shared bssid 00-80-C8-38-61-C8 channel 6 country
RU ssid olko regdomain
debug*
(i don't know why "debug" e.g., because i man regdomain is
noninformative enough, and by the way regdomain.xls was stealed from
somewhere..)
so..
*[root at mail /etc]# ifconfig wlan0
wlan0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
ether 00:21:91:82:31:9b
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (autoselect)
status: no carrier
ssid olko channel 1 (2412 Mhz 11b) bssid 00:80:c8:38:61:c8
regdomain DEBUG country RU authmode SHARED privacy ON deftxkey 1
wepkey 1:40-bit txpower 30 bmiss 7 scanvalid 60 bgscan
bgscanintvl 300
bgscanidle 250 roam:rssi 7 roam:rate 1 bintval 0
[root at mail /etc]#*
why is it no carrier ? i can do something not right, and i will be
appriciate if you show me tha way where i can read how to get it work,
or maybe you'll edit/fix me! Thanx!
P.S. 40 bit on FreeBSD and 64 bit on Dlink is it the same values ? am i
set it right ?
