Everytime I boot my notebook it lags after runlevel 3 when it starts my networking. I know it's a setting in my rc.conf I just can't figure out what to change. Here is how my rc.conf is set up at the moment.
# /etc/rc.conf
eth0="dhcp"
ath0="dhcp"
wlan_ath0="ath0 ap any"
WLAN_INTERFACES=(ath0)
INTERFACES=(lo eth0 ath0)
I tried replacing "ap any" with "ap none" but it still lagged and I had errors. I'm wondering if I should setup network profiles but I use multiple AP's everyday so I don't know if this is my best option. I'm happy with doing everything from the shell and not having my notebook connect to whatever is available. Any advice would be appreciated!

If you don't have a wired connection, disable eth0.
I have an ath-based Netgear WG511T, my relevant rc.conf entries are:
lo="lo 127.0.0.1"
eth0="dhcp"
ath0="dhcp"
wlan_ath0="ath0 essid any"
WLAN_INTERFACES=(ath0)
INTERFACES=(lo !eth0 ath0)

So that lag is probably my on board ethernet? I'm usually not using a wired connection. I'll try disabling it and see what happens. Thanks for the reply.
