--- Comment #1 from Andriy Voskoboinyk <avos at freebsd.org> ---
Hi,

You should use 'wlanaddr' argument for wireless interfaces (creation time
only):
ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 wlanaddr <addr>

'ether' is not guaranteed to work with them (wpi(4) / iwn(4) / urtwn(4) / <most
other> will write it to hardware after 'ifconfig wlan0 up', but ath(4) use it
when the vap is created).
