Has anyone had experience connecting FreeBSD client to a Netgear MR814v2 wireless router? I picked up one for my sister and decided to give it a shot here first; I'm able to connect to it fine when under Windows, but FreeBSD refuses to associate with it. I suspect that this may be some sort of compatibilty issue, as I've used this wi0 card to connect to my FreeBSD AP as well as a few other access points without issue. (This machine is running -current, but I guess I could reconfigure my main AP for testing with -stable if necessary.) If someone can tell me how to dump 802.11 packets for the purpose of debugging this issue, I'd be happy to do so. (Note that I have WEP and SSID hiding both enabled on the MR814v2; have other people found SSID hiding to cause problems with FreeBSD clients?) Thanks, Mike "Silby" Silbersack
