No internet post install

I've also ensured, however, that it the entries are DHCP only (and not WPA)

A wifi access point is either OPEN or ENCRYPTED, DHCP is the Dynamic Host Control Protocol that will ask the WAP (Wifi Access Point ) for an IP address to use in their network to assign to your computer as your Network IP number. It also asks for the gateway and broadcast IP numbers to setup your side of the network.

ipfw_enable="YES"
firewall_enable="YES"
ifconfig_em0="DHCP"
wlans_iwm0="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP"
# ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP"
keymap="us.kbd"
hostname="omid-ghostbsd-pc"
ifconfig_ue0="DHCP"
# several different lines in my /etc/rc.conf file.
# use #ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP"  for an encrypted access point
# use #ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP"  for an open access point.  You have to perform this step by manual editing file /etc/rc.conf when using OPEN wifi access point

authmode WPA2/802.11i privacy ON Says you need ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP" in the /etc/rc.conf file

authmode OPEN says you need ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP" in the /etc/rc.conf file

Open networks information in the /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf file. Use ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP" in the /etc/rc.conf file

network={
ssid="SMC Guest"
# proto=RSN
key_mgmt=NONE
}

network={
ssid="FreshTomato50"
key_mgmt=NONE
}

network={
ssid="FreshTomato24"
key_mgmt=NONE
}

Use Encrypted WPA wifi network configuration

network={
ssid="AndroidAP_5120"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
proto=RSN
psk="Fred1287"
}

network={
ssid="Fred1"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
proto=RSN
psk="12345678"
# key_mgmt=NONE
}
# use ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP"; # in /etc/rc.conf file for encrypted networks
