Unable to join open WEP wireless network



Dear NetBSD users,

I am having trouble connecting NetBSD to an open WEP wireless network,
called "ks-guest". Because my Android mobile phone is able to connect
to "ks-guest", the network is functioning.

"ifconfig iwi0 list scan" gives the following output:

I try to connect to "ks-guest" by "ifconfig iwi0 ssid ks-guest
-nwkey". When I run "ifconfig", the ssid is updated. However, the
status remains "no network":
iwi0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        ssid ks-guest
        powersave off
        bssid 10:bd:18:f0:26:f0
        address: 00:12:f0:f2:14:c4
        media: IEEE802.11 autoselect
        status: no network
        inet6 fe80::212:f0ff:fef2:14c4%iwi0 prefixlen 64 detached scopeid 0x3

I tried to specify bssid and channel by for example "ifconfig -s iwi0
ssid ks-guest bssid 24:01:c7:14:2b:e2 chan 6 -nwke". However, the
status does not change.

What can I try to connect to the network?

Sincerely,
Xianwen
