Hello Jim,

This seems strange to me.
It works just fine with here. The Cisco Aironet 1200 series access points.
I verified that i can use ssh/http/irc just fine from my notebook
with a 350 series PC card (fw rev. 5.41)

The tcpdump log seems just fine(to me).

Are you using a Aironet 350 series access point ? (Not that this makes any
difference, but I'm just curious)

# ifconfig an0 nwid <ssid> nwkey 0x<key>
# dhclient an0
