Thanks for your reply.  You are right indeed.  It was not obvious to me
that I should set a tx keyid manually, partly because when setting the
WEP key, ifconfig(8) assumes key 1 if no index is specified.

Would it be correct to set the default tx keyid to 1?  On the contrary,
I will provide an update to the manpage stating setting the default tx
keyid is mandatory.


Note that if_ral works now, but I still can't use if_wi.  I suppose this
is a bug in the driver.

As a side note, I can't use wlanstats with wi(4):
