Hi,
I have checked and I couldn't find this topic on another thread. I have also read the manual but I am getting stuck, therefore I am posting for some help.
I have a laptop running freeBSD 7.1 stable. I have installed a Linksys Wireless PCMCIA card using ndiswrapper, which has installed fine. Now I am stuck because I am not sure how to connect to my home network. I have tried using ifconfig to enter the details manually but I'm getting nothing. When I scan for networks it just seems to take forever and not actually do anything. Is there a better tool than ifconfig for wireless network? If ifconfig is ok, does anybody know of any good guides for setup?
I tried doing settings such as "ifconfig_ndis0="DHCP" " and I keep getting messages like command not found, even though thats what it says in the manual, I hope someone can help!
Many thanks!
