(i.e. their WiFi network doesn't like your laptop since it's running *BSD, I know that my starbucks connection doesn't like my laptop sometimes). It could also be that the WiFi network is scanning for the WiFi client on the machine, and when it doesn't find it - it won't allow it to log on. -- Jonathan -- Jonathan M.

I need some advice. When I proudly bring my FreeBSD-5.x laptop(s) into Starbucks, I have my "wi0" set for "DHCP" in /etc/rc.conf and I never have consistant handshakes with the server, same coffee shop, same everything. Sometimes I'm so pressed for time that I can't go through all the "ifconfig wi0 ..." commands and I just have to reboot into godammmmmmmmmmmed windows and it friggin works..... FUCKING HUMILIATING..... (sorry for the adj.) Does anyone have any supplimental arguments to /etc/rc.conf to get me onto my account at Starbucks? I firmly believe one cannot: "Save Face And Ass At Same Time" hence my email. Thank You :) ____________________________________________________ Yahoo! Sports Rekindle the Rivalries.
