My wlan is up. How can i make it work as an access point to share internet on my iphone?

I read them again and again and i made a lot of tries but i didn't made it
I use cable to connect to internet and just i want to make my computer's wifi a connection point to connect my iphone on that.

 

[sk8harddiefast]

I read the handbook a lot of times (My english is not helping a lot and i have no idea of wireless connections) and i made a lot of tries and i am stuck here.

Code:

ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev urtw0
ifconfig: create: bad value

&&

Code:

dhclient wlan0
wlan0: no link .............. giving up

My rc.conf

Code:

defaultrouter="192.168.1.1"
wlans_urtw0="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP"

My loader.conf

Code:

if_urtw_load="YES"
wlan_wep_load="YES"
wlan_ccmp_load="YES"
wlan_tkip_load="YES"

My wpa_supplicant.conf

Code:

network={
  ssid="Ember's Network"
  psk="freebsdwifi"
}

ifconfig -a

Code:

urtw0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 2290
	ether 00:15:af:1a:ab:c6
	media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11g
	status: associated
wlan0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
	ether 00:15:af:1a:ab:c6
	inet6 fe80::215:afff:fe1a:abc6%wlan0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x8 
	media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (autoselect)
	status: no carrier
	ssid "" channel 1 (2412 Mhz 11g)
	country US authmode WPA1+WPA2/802.11i privacy ON deftxkey UNDEF
	txpower 0 bmiss 7 scanvalid 450 bgscan bgscanintvl 300 bgscanidle 250
	roam:rssi 7 roam:rate 5 protmode CTS roaming MANUAL bintval 0

Is not understanding DHCP and my ssid is not on wlan0
Also ifconfig -a shows urtw0 but seems to do not exist in reality and after /etc/rc.d/netif restart urtw0 disappear and only wlan0 is there.
I guess i created a mess here

Check if your device supports ap mode by
% ifconfig wlan0 list capsand see if "HOSTAP" is listed

Code:

drivercaps=xxxxxxx<...,...,HOSTAP,...,...>

If not, it won't work as an AP.

If listed, you need to create wlan with# ifconfig wlan create wlandev urtw0 [b]wlanmode ap[/b](You might want to destroy wlan and re-create.)

You need
1) hostapd instead of wpa_client,
2) dhcpd instead of dhclient, and
3) bridge or natd of your choice.

ifconfig wlan0 list caps returns me:

Code:

drivercaps=2181e001<STA,TXPMGT,SHSLOT,SHPREAMBLE,MONITOR,WPA1,WPA2,BGSCAN>

I have not support for hostap mode
It was the first i tried.
