Configure the wireless device as a secondary which is only used when the Ethernet connection is not available. With lagg(4), it is possible to configure a failover which prefers the Ethernet connection, while maintaining the ability to transfer data over the wireless connection. This is...

Hi all, I'm having an issue with connecting my FreeBSD laptop (with an Intel 7260 chipset) to my school's wifi. I have no issues using it with my home (wpa2) wifi, and I have had no issues on with the school wifi on linux. I'm connecting with wpa_supplicant and wpa_gui. The laptop in particular...

Hello everyone, I've just installed on my T430 a few days ago, and I'm facing some wifi issues. Occasionally, when I boot up, I get no network. I am unable to turn on wifi 1 on Networkmgr, and WPA_Supplicant and WPA_CLI did not work and I'll have to reboot to try again. I'll post any logs you...

Hi. I have some usb wifi dongles but they don't work well with FreeBSD, so I thought I might try this wifi adapter for wifi on freebsd. Did anyone try something like that? Do you think it will work? I had a broadcom wifi chip that i want to use with wifibox but i just learnt that broadcom series...

I wonder why $ doas ifconfig wlan0 destroy $ doas ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev iwm0 wlanmode adhoc ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE2 (wlan0): Operation not supported gives me operation not supported. Isn't adhoc supposed to be supported? What I want, is to directly connect my Thinkpad x250 and another...

The FreeBSD Foundation is making significant strides in wireless development, led by Cheng Cui and Bjoern Zeeb. Their primary goals are to fix bugs, stabilize the system, and improve iwlwifi for 802.11ac transfer speeds. Zeeb’s recent contributions have brought stability fixes to native and...

Hi everyone. A common question from FreeBSD users across desktop, server, and vendors is "which chips, NIC, SSD, WiFi, etc. hardware makers consistently offer good FreeBSD support?" This is a priority for me and a first step is to catalog the hardware makers that DO offer good support so the...

First time install of FreeBSD and i'm getting this error when trying to connect to the internet. Any fixes? IMPORTANT NOTE! I am pretty inexperienced with these kinds of operating systems. And generally alot of tech.

I am currently running FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE on a ThinkPad T400. I will often be using my device, when the WiFi will suddenly shut off. i3status reports that it's "down" and wifimgr is blank. I've tried restarting all and any network-related daemons, to no avail, and wifimgr doesn't seem to be...

Hi all, FreeBSD on ARM states that the WiFi chip on the Zero 2W is unsupported ("Unsupported (BCM43438 Driver)"). Just wondering if: a) this is still the case, and if so b) if support is likely to be developed. I am happy to test if needed. In the absence of WiFi connectivity, does anyone...

Hi there. I am struggling with a rather annoying problem. I decided to "dig up" an old minipc, a Dell OptiPlex 3040 micro and install FreeBSD on it. uname -a FreeBSD crap 14.0-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE-p3 #0: Mon Dec 11 04:56:01 UTC 2023...

The tl;dr version: For a specific WiFi AP, I can connect directly from the command line but not via wpa_supplicant.conf. That's the puzzle, why won't wpa_supplicant.conf work? The full version: This particular AP does not require a passphrase. Here's the two commands to connect to the WiFi...
