Hi list,

I've tried Sam Leffler's latest HAL[1] in following FreeBSD
7.0-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) and Gentoo GNU/Linux (hardened/AMD64).

In Gentoo GNU/Linux, I'm able to connect to a WPA2 secured network with
no problems, whereas in FreeBSD, I'm only able to scan the Wireless
network successfully, not able to ping any box. I've tried FreeBSD with
an unencrypted network as well as encrypted network using
wpa_supplicant, but except scanning nothing worked.

I'm running FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p1 kernel, just replaced
/usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/ath with the directory in tarball, and rebuilt
all modules.

Any ideas what should I do ?

Tons of thanks to Sam for posting the HAL.

Regards
