Please add an option analog to
http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/mailarchive/commits/2010-11/msg00169.html for
bypassing the hardware crypto of the WiFi chipset - it is broken at least
on some Atheros ones, specifically (non-exhaustively)
device Network controller (Ethernet controller) [2|0|0]
vendor 168c: Atheros Communications Inc.
device 1014: AR5212 802.11abg NIC
and AR9285 (only tested with DragonFly)
This shows e.g. as DHCPOFFERs being sent by the router (as per router's
log), but not received by the system. On DragonFly setting the sysctl from
that commit solves this problem.
