I have both 'device wlan' and 'device wlan_wep' compiled in and if_ndis.ko loaded. Just a shot in the dark -- do you rebuild your 'if_ndis.ko' every time you rebuild your kernel -- I always do it manually: cd /usr/src/sys/modules/if_ndis;make clean;make;make install I don't know whether it is mandatory or not, but I have vague recollection of being burned by not doing this. Might no longer be necessary (if it ever was) though. At this point, hopefully somebody who knows this stuff will chime in if only to scold me for giving stupid suggestions ;) -- Alexandre "Sunny" Kovalenko (Олександр Коваленко)
