On RELENG_7, I needed a newer version (v0.5.11 instead of v0.5.10) of wpa_supplicant for it to associate correctly. With v0.5.10, I could see DHCP requests from my laptop but no responses. This is the patch I am using currently: http://people.freebsd.org/~scf/wpa_supplicant-0.5.11-RELENG_7.patch Note: sam@ updated HEAD to v0.5.11 then to the v0.6.x series.
