I just got an iogear usb wireless adapter to add to my machine which previously only ran a wired interface. After poking around I now see that wireless setup works significantly different in CURRENT than it did in previous releases. I haven't found too terribly much on google, but the basic idea seems to be that I have to setup a wlans interface in rc.conf. So, the following is what I added to rc.conf, which is consistent with the examples I've found, including the one in /usr/src/UPDATING. wlans_zyd0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP" I see zyd0 interface in ifconfig, but even with these lines added to rc.conf, I'm not getting any wlan0 interface, and I can't list scanned networks on zyd0. Any idea what I'm missing? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/setting-up-wlan-with-vap---wlan0-doesn%27t-appear-tp24453847p24453847.html Sent from the freebsd-current mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
