Hi,
I installed FreeBSD 8.2 on my laptop one week ago, and everything was working until today, wifi won't work anymore. There's apparently a DHCP problem. during boot dhclient doesn't even run anymore, and here's what happens if I try to start it manually:
Everything still works fine on the same router with ethernet cable, and wifi also still works on other OSes. I guess I shot myself in the foot like I always do with FreeBSD, but I have no clue what went wrong, I triple-checked all the configuration files I know about... Thanks in advance for help!
