Just for fun, I tried running various "ifconfig" commands on fwe0, such as
"bssid", "mode", "authmode". Various error messages were reported, mostly of
the "SIOCS80211: Invalid argument" variety. I'm not all that bothered about
getting the internal NIC working at the moment, just an FYI on why I'm not
using it.
