wifi

So I have installed net-mgmt/networkmgr There's a lack of documentation, though that could just be me. It seems to be a collection of python scripts and a sudo configuration file which get installed in /usr/local/etc/sudoers.d I found the odd historic thread mentioning doas, but it now...

My desktop computer has an "Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 Wi-Fi and Bluetooth M.2 combo card", which I have no use for (I have a wired connection). I would like to completely disable the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card. How do I configure that in FreeBSD 13.2? Would I be able to reduce energy consumption...

I don't have a lot of experience with WiFi, but I want to put a switch into an area without a wired network connection. The easiest solution would seem to be a WiFi up-link. There is a Netgear WNDR4300 N750 next door. Are WiFi up-links a proprietary thing -- meaning that I have to buy two...

(I'm running 13.2-STABLE and using the iwlwifi driver on a Dell Precision laptop.) The good news is I managed to make my FreeBSD laptop connect to the eduroam wifi network at work :) Very happy with this. However, in the process I experienced quite a few system crashes/restarts. At the time of...

Hi Everyone, My laptop has both Ethernet and wireless cards, managed by the em(4) and iwn(4) drivers, the latter being associated with wlan0. Normally Ethernet is not connected, and I'm using wifi only. Sometimes I need to transfer a large file on my subnetwork, and for this I'd like to plug...
