I just installed freebsd 13.0 on my lenovo thinkpad x260. I also have debian and windows 10 installed on the same laptop in different partitions.
On both debian and window 10, when I use fast.com, I can easily get 400mbps on wireless.
However, on my freebsd, for both wired and wireless, I can only seem to get 20mbps.
I am not sure where to begin to fix this, I just started using freebsd and only just figured out how to connect to the internet. I want to try to understand what is going on. I have spent the last to days reading documentation and trying to find posts in forums from people with similar problems, but I can seem to solve it their way.
I would really appreciate some guidance. I really want to learn how to use this OS.
The output of my ifconfig wlan0 look like this,
My /etc/rc.conf looks like this,
The output from my sudo ifconfig wlan0 list sta looks like this,
The output from sudo ifconfig wlan0 list roam looks like this,
When I try to change the speed using this commands, sudo ifconfig wlan0 mode 11n, this is the error
When I try, sudo ifconfig wlan0 roam:rate 1000, I get
