Hi

FreeBSD noya.local 6.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 6.1-PRERELEASE #0: Sun Feb 
5 12:32:51 GMT 2006     root at noya.local:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/NOYA 
i386

DWL-G520 rev. b3 (Atheros 5213) wireless NIC
D-Link DSL-G624M wireless ADSL router

In Windows it all works fine with WEP, in FreeBSD it works fine
without WEP, but I just can't get it to work _with_ WEP.

Commands used:

ifconfig ath0 ssid xxx channel 6 wepmode on weptxkey 1 wepkey 1:0x1122334455
dhclient ath0 (just keeps trying to contact the DHCP server).

The router is set to use a 64-bit hex WEP key.

Any ideas?
