Wireless USB NIC configuration



Running netbsd-40. Machine recognizes the card

rum0 at uhub1 port 7
rum0: Cisco-Linksys Compact Wireless-G USB Adapter, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 3
rum0: MAC/BBP RT2573 (rev 0x2573a), RF RT2528, address 00:22:6b:9c:71:99
rum0: 11b rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps
rum0: 11g rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps

It allows me to set ssid and nwkey. However ifconfig always gives

status: no network

$ ifconfig rum0
rum0: flags=8803<UP,BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        ssid ******  nwkey *****
        powersave off
        address: 00:22:6b:9c:71:99
        media: IEEE802.11 autoselect
        status: no network
        inet6 fe80::222:6bff:fe9c:7199%rum0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5

And I get the message

rum0: failed loadfirmware of file rum-rt2573 (error 2)
rum0: failed loadfirmware of file rum-rt2573 (error 2)
