BWN WLAN wpa_supplicant ssid mismatch no carrier

[Thomas D. Dean]

FreeBSD 9.0 as of June 1, 2012.

I have an older laptop with a PC Card Linksys WiFi adapter.

I cannot connect to a close-by (2 ft) wireless router.

 > cat rc.conf
...
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA SYNCDHCP"
wlans_bwn0="wlan0"
...

 > cat /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
network={
   ssid="tddhome"
   psk="...."
}

# wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -ddt
...
  0:  < the correct router> ssid='' wpa_ie_len=22 ...
   skip - SSID mismatch
...

The interface is seeing the correct router
 > ifconfig -v wlan0 list scan
...

SSID<tddhome> ... WPA<v1 mc:AES-CCMP uc:AES-CCMP km:8021X-PSK> ...

What am I doing wrong?
