Make sure you have a supported chipset, e.g. an intel one. Some cards need extra firmware, which you'll get in the first boot, so until that a network cable is needed.

One of the best things about OpenBSD is how connecting to the WiFi is done with ifconfig and how trivial it is compared to wpa_supplicant or NetworkManager.

Oh yeah. The docs make the process look very easy and simple. I simply don't have a well-supported card in any of my laptops. I guess I'll have to order a new one. :D
