netgear MA311 not wanting to work with ibook.

The card from dmesg:

wi0: <Intersil Prism2.5> mem 0xef001000-0xef001fff irq 3 at device 9.0 on
pci0
wi0: 802.11 address: 00:09:5b:12:09:8f
wi0: using RF:PRISM2.5 MAC:ISL3874A(Mini-PCI)
wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary 1.00.07, Station 1.03.06

This is what i'm using to get it going:

/sbin/sysctl net.link.ether.bridge=1
/sbin/sysctl net.link.ether.bridge_cfg="wi0 xl0"
/sbin/sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
/sbin/ifconfig wi0 ssid ABYSS mediaopt hostap debug up

ifconfig:

Using 5.0-CURRENT from a few weeks ago; here's something odd... i have the
ibook set to use DHCP, and the hostap gateway is running isc-dhcpd, and
the ibook is getting the DHCP information and the ibooks signal bar is
about 90% full.


any ideas?

TIA
