Hello!

To do some testing, I'd like to use my WLAN in unencrypted
mode, ie. no WEP, no WPA. How would I configure that in
my /etc/conf.d/net?

Would I just leave out any "key_" lines reg. this ESSID? AM
I forced to use wpa_supplicant to do this?

Thanks,

Alexander Skwar

essid_eth1="fishnet"
mode_eth1="managed"

But I think you really want to put this in /etc/conf.d/wireless
instead of /e/c.d/net, depending upon your version of baselayout.
Also read /etc/conf.d/wireless.example.

HTH,
