I think the driver that comes with 8.2 stable just works fine. When I manually run dhclient em0, it says ip address obtained. but ifconfig em0 shows ip address of 0.0.0.0. And there is no default route in the 'netstat -r' output. On Thu, 17 Nov 2011, Edward Martinez wrote: > On 11/17/11 18:41, Xihong Yin wrote: >> >> I did reboot.
