The lockup happened again. I now have the output from "ifconfig ral0"
while in the locked-up state:
ral0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ssid gson nwkey *****
powersave off
bssid 00:0d:88:eb:ba:ca chan 1
address: 00:16:01:80:1e:96
media: IEEE802.11 autoselect (OFDM36 mode 11g)
status: no network
inet 10.0.1.247 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
inet6 fe80::216:1ff:fe80:1e96%ral0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3
Doing "ifconfig ral0 down" followed by "ifconfig ral0 up" made it
work again. At that point, the output of "ifconfig ral0" was:
ral0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ssid gson nwkey *****
powersave off
bssid 00:0d:88:eb:ba:ca chan 1

media: IEEE802.11 autoselect (OFDM36 mode 11g)

inet6 fe80::216:1ff:fe80:1e96%ral0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3
The only difference between the two is the line "status: no network"
vs. "status: active".
