    Well, I don't have any freebsd boxes, never have, so I can't answer
    directly. However, something to check would be the type of ad-hoc mode.
    There is IBSS-Adhoc mode and Ad-hoc demo mode and they are *not* compatable.
    Make sure you are using the same on each end. Matching essids and
    frequencies is good but it doesn't appear that the essid is critical. (I can
    talk to other machines that have a different essid).

    With the linux orinoco driver you use the iwpriv set_port3 to set the type.
    For freebsd I have no idea.

    HTH,
