I added a new minipci wireless card of Atheros 5213 chipset in my laptop last week, then I make a new kernel which contains necessary entries related "ath" and "wlan", that's all according to the handbook. After finished these works my freebsd7-stable recognized this new minipci card.
But if I search for any ssid it will stop and no further response.
Could someone help me diagnostic how to resolve this problem?
Thanks a lot.:)
