Hi!

I've asked this question, but unfortunatelly got no answer,
may be this time I will be more lucky ...

I have 486DX2/66 based ISA only machine, equipped with
WaveLAN/AT-2.4 board (ISA of cource). Currently it works
under Linux (WaveLAN-related stuff is OK). I have a tension
to move towards the FreeBSD for this machine... While trying
to determine the WaveLAN usability under FreeBSD (I've tryed
2.2.5-RELESE and 2.2.6-RELESE - the same results), I got the
following behaviour:
	at the time the kernel is booting, wavelan driver
	successfully locates the board (it reports correct
	port, irq, nwid, frequensy...),
	
	BUT when I try to configure the wl0 interface, i.e.
	ifconfig wl0 inet 194.226.231.1 netmask 255.255.255.252
	the kernel exclames the following:

wl0: entered wlioctl()		<- OK let it be so <g>, WLDEBUG is on
wl0: entered wlinit()
wl0: enterd wlhwrst()		<- the trouble begins here
wl0: DCE_STATUS: 0x0, Correct NWID's: 0, Wrong NWID's: 0
THR_PRESET: 0xc0, SIGNAL_LVL: 64, SILENCE_LVL: 64
SIGNQUAL: 0x75, NETW_ID: fe:0, DES: 254 	<- it's not mine
						   NETWID, nor mine
						   counterpart's, more -
						   there are no DES
						   encription chips
						   installed !!! 
wl0: doing wlack()
wl0: entered wldiag()
wl0: wldiag() failed: status=0; inw=0; outw=e0a0
scb_status 8200
scb_command 0
scb_cbl 1608
cu_cmd 8007
wl0: init(): trouble resetting board	<- THE FINAL BOOH ! 
wl0: wlintr() called
	
	And the interface becomes "UP", but not "RUNNING"...
	This is diagnostics from 2.2.5 kernel, 2.2.6 "blows"
	with approximatelly the same stuff...

Please, lety me know if it is possible to insist the wl0
to become the "RUNNING" interface....

With best regards,
Max.
