Hey list, I've searched and searched for a solution to this problem and I can't find one.
 
I've got the wireless nic setup, its a Linksys WUSB54G v2.
 
Its picked up by the ural driver, but as far as I can tell that driver doesn't work for it.
 
dmesg gives me:
 
ural0: MAC/BBP RT2570 (rev 0x05), RF RT2526
ural0: WARNING: using obsoleted IFF_NEEDSGIANT flag
ural0: Ethernet address: 00:18:39:03:35:3b
 
Then I get a series of messages that repeat:
ural0: link state changed to UP
ural0: link state changed to DOWN
ural0: link state changed to UP
ural0: link state changed to DOWN
 
Here's ifconfig when the device is UP:
ural0: flags=108843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,NEEDSGIANT> metric 0 mtu 1500
     ether 00:18:39:03:35:3b
     inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 255.255.255.255
     media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (OFDM/36Mbps)
     status: associated
     ssid MYNETWORK channel 6 (2437 Mgz 11g) bssid 00:25:9c:9e:e0:00
     authmode WPA2/802.11i privacy ON deftxkey UNDEF txpower 50 bmiss 7
     scanvalid 60 protmode CTS roaming MANUAL
 
And in my rc.conf I have this defined:
ifconfig_ural0="wpa DHCP"
hostname="my.home.server"
 
And lastly this is my wpa_supplicant.conf
network={
     ssid="MYNETWORK"
     key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
     psk="mysecretpass"
}
 
Anyone have any ideas on how I can pull down a stable connection with this so that I can upgrade to 8.0?
 
Thanks in advance,
Bobby
