Well now I now know why my FreeBSD systems (not just the WMP11 system)
will all talk to each other in "128 bit" mode but won't talk to my
Windows XP machine or my friend's AP: It looks like 128 bit encryption
is just plain broken for prism2 cards (given that only 5 bytes of any
key get copied to the device):

				memcpy(ws.wi_str,
				    &wk->wi_keys[i].wi_keydat, 5);


One comment: If you're trying to determine if a device is a Prism 2.5, "sc->wi_bus_type  == WI_BUS_PCI_NATIVE" isn't a good check.  I believe
the latest WPC11 PCMCIA card is a Prism 2.5 but it's bus type would
be WI_BUS_PCCARD.
