    Do you use WEP? If yes, can you use it just with the typical rc.conf
    entries or do you have a custom start script? I ask since I have to use
    some "complicated" start procedure (setting some values with ifconfig,
    load the wep module, set some other values with ifconfig and the scan
    for the AP).

    Bye,
    Alexander.
