Re: wireless configuration

=> I have a machine running amd64 7.0 that has an Intel Centrino type
=> wireless device.   This is recognised and configured at boot time at
=> iwn0 as one would expect, but shows up in ifconfig -a with "No
=> network".   The router with the specified SSID is running properly,
=> and other wireless devices access it normally.   But the router is too
=> modern to support WEP encryption.   Is encryption likely to be the
=> problem?   Other suggestions?

   Do you have wpa_supplicant configured and running? See the man page,
https://wiki.netbsd.org/tutorials/how_to_use_wpa_supplicant/ , and/or
/usr/share/examples/wpa_supplicant/*.
