Hi,

I tried today to do the wireless/wired roaming, almost as given
in the man page, with the exception that my wireless interface (ath),
uses WPA, and i'm trying to run dhclient on the trunk interface.
However it does not work as expected, and i'm not sure why...
The problem is that if ath0 is a member of the trunk0 interface
it always deassociates a few seconds after associating.
If i remove it from the trunk group it associates perfectly, and
keeps the link up.
The AP is a pfsense 1.0.1 based machine using ral0 interface
and works without problem with the ath0 interface in my laptop from a
couple of years.

I'll be glad to provide more info if needed.
