    Your interface only has an IPv6 address. Is that expected? How
    are you bringing up the an0 interface?

    For instance, my /root/netstart-home.sh script contains (among a
    few other things):

        # Default setup for my bge0 interface.
        export ifconfig_ath0="DHCP ssid 'XXXX' \
                   wepmode on weptxkey 1 wepkey '1:0xXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'"

        /etc/rc.d/netif stop bge0
        /etc/rc.d/netif stop ath0
        /etc/rc.d/netif start ath0

    This seems to take care of everything here.
