Hello, I am trying to use FreeBSD 8.2 on my Eee netbook. =A0I am having issues with my atheros 9285 card which seems to be directly related to this bug: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3D149307 I can create my wlan0 device and connect to my router using wpa_supplicant. However, when I try to use dhclient to get an ip addr, it doesn't seem to be able to communicate with the router. I have also tried to set a static IP addr and ping the router but that did not work. dmesg reports multiple 'bb hang detected 0x80' errors. I'm almost positive that this card worked in previous versions of FreeBSD. I haven't yet tried to update to the freebsd-current as mentioned in the bug report, but I will when I get a chance. Has anybody else gotten this card to work? Are there any known work arounds? Maybe using the windows driver with the ndis wrapper. I have a bit of Linux kernel development experience and I would be happy to help squash this bug. Just let me know how I can help. Keep up the good work,
