Finally. `if_iwlwifi` works (sometimes) on my WiFi network at home!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Those are the relevant parts in my `/etc/rc.conf` configuration file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
|
static_routes="thor_lan thor_wifi"
|
|
|
|
route_thor_lan="-net 192.168.2.0/24 192.168.1.1"
|
|
|
|
route_thor_wifi="-net 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.2.1"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ifconfig_re0="DHCP"
|
|
|
|
create_args_wlan0="country AT metric 100 ssid AP1"
|
|
|
|
wlans_iwlwifi0="wlan0"
|
|
|
|
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA SYNCDHCP"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
create_args_wlan1="country AT ssid AP2"
|
|
|
|
wlans_run0="wlan1"
|
|
|
|
ifconfig_wlan1="WPA SYNCDHCP defaultif"
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In fact I only made a single change to the suggested options from the handbook.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
|
create_args_wlan0="regdomain ETSI2 country AT"
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As you can see, I removed the `redgomain ETSI2` part. I've also tried _ETSI_ so
|
|
|
|
far but that also didn't work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This works with a Killer Wi-Fi 6 AX1650 card. I haven't tried this with the
|
|
|
|
Intel AX200(NGW) card that originally was built into my laptop.

This works for me sometimes. But random panics still occur!
