First of all, I'm sorry for such stupid question. I know, that I need few details, but I can't figure out what are they. I'm plaing with Intel(r) PRO/Wireless2200BG wifi card and it's configuration. I have found different descriptions for the /etc/dhclient.conf file. I have read "iwi" manual. There are different options (or maybe only different same option names). I'm newbie in a wifi networks. But in the other system, machine with windows and netstumbller I found these wifi networks settings: SSID: sessionid Network Authentification: Open Data Encryption: Wep Network key: 1011121311 (0x1011121311) There sessionid is changed only for anonimity purposes. I need to use dhcp. Now I'm trying to use such /etc/dhclient.conf configuration: initial-interval 1; send host-name "thinkpad"; request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, routers, domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name; interface "iwi0" { media "ssid sessionid wepkey 0x1011121311"; } And when I try to use: #dhclient iwi0 I get following errors: Trying medium "ssid sessionid wepkey 0x1011121311" 1 DHCPDISCOVER on iwi0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 2 send_packet: Network is down I get this in a cycle with different intervals (" 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 2", " 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3", " 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7"). What are the differences between "wepkey" and "nwkey" mentioned in iwi driver developer page (http://damien.bergamini.free.fr/ipw/ipw-openbsd.html). And in the same page there are good description, but only for static configurations. So if I 've understood everything correctly, I need to use /etc/dhclient.conf file for configuration. But I stuck there. Please, give me any advice or a link. Thanks for your patient, and sorry for me english. Regards, --=20 Slack is GOOD. BSD is better.
