Maybe its a language thing; however, I am not comprehending what you are trying got say. You would, or at least I would, limit the networks I want to automatically connect to. That can be as few as one, or none if you simply disable it entirely. FreeBSD suffers from unneeded user intervention in order to configure the device, assuming (and that is a large assumption) that a driver is available for said device. In the case of "N" protocol devices, the chances of one being available ate moot to none. -- Jerry ✌ jerry+fbsd@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or ignored.
