iwlwifi DHCP lease acquisition failed

I am having issues trying to get wireless to work. During the installation process I enable WIFI. It scans and finds my router. I connect to it and then I get these error message accross the screen.

I have even tried to install using a lan connection and then tried to get wifi to work after and had no luck despite someone on Discord helpdesk-chat trying their best to help me.

I wish to learn more about operating systems and I am willing to put in the work to figure it out. Is there anyone I could reach out to for help?

I found a rather old ASUS RT-N12 D1 router. Plugged it in. Reset it. Gave it an SSID.

Restarted FreeBSD 14.2 Release installation. I can enable wifi, select my SSID, Connect, get IPV4 going. No more error messages.

I will try an installation soon and report back if I get anymore WIFI related issues. I will also try to get the specs on this Shaw box we are using at some point.
