If you >are using RELENG_6, you need to specify -DTESTING to an argument of >make(1) when building iwi-firmware-kmod. OK, thanks - that works. However, I have still been unsuccessful trying to get IBSS mode to work with the new (or old) "iwi" driver. I ran: ifconfig iwi0 inet <my-address> ssid FOOBAR channel 5 mediaopt adhoc up and then "ifconfig iwi0" indicates media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (autoselect <adhoc>) but no other clients are able to see it. Has anyone gotten this to work? (I can't use BSS mode, because I want to run it as a base station, and "hostap" doesn't work for it - being a non-Prism chipset.) Ross Finlayson Live Networks, Inc.
