Hello,
I'm running FreeBSD 6 and I have followed the guide about iwi-firmware
here, i still cant use it, somehow, whenever i enter my info to ifconfig the status stay at "no carrier" nothing on dmesg, what ive done so far
Code:
# cd /usr/ports/net/iwi-firmware && make install clean
# kldload -v wlan_wep
# kldload -v if_iwi
# echo "if_iwi_load=\"YES\"" >> /boot/loader.conf
# echo "wlan_wep_load=\"YES\"" >> /boot/loader.conf
# iwicontrol -i iwi0 -d /boot/firmware -m bss
# ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.2.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid Gandalf wepkey 0xEA64B3D6ECD3A48AB87687B862 weptxkey 1 wepmode on channel 10
# ifconfig iwi0 up
# ifconfig iwi0
