Just to follow up on myself... I have done some more research and figured out most of what is going on. The MA401 is another Prism II based card, aparently. http://people.freebsd.org/~wpaul/wi.patch, when ported to -stable, appears to do the trick. The patch applies with some fuzz, other than adding 'int wi_prism2' to the softc. This fixed the problem with encryption. The Ethernet address still comes up wrong (and different every time). I am temporarily working around this with 'ifconfig ${interface} ether 8:0:20:de:ad:bf' in my start_if.wi0 file until the problem is fixed correctly. One must make sure to add the '0x10000' to the pccard.conf entry one makes for this card so the driver can be properly informed that this is indeed a Prism II card. Many thanks (again) to Bill Paul.
