How to drive RTL8822ce with freebsd14.3?

Check the network card interface
# sysctl net.wlan.devices
net.wlan.devices: rtw880

Create a wifi interface
# ifconfig wlan create wlandev rtw880

Scan the available networks
# ifconfig wlan0 up
# ifconfig wlan0 scan

Edit /etc/rc.conf
wlans_rtw880="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP"

Edit /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
network={
ssid="your wifi name"
psk="password"
}

Prevent connection interruption, edit /boot/loader.conf
compat.linuxkpi.skb.mem_limit=1


Restart the machine
# init 6

Check the wifi connection status
# ifconfig wlan0


hint！！！
Do not install wifi-firmware-rtw88-kmod and wifi-firmware-rtw88-kmod-rtw8822c. Otherwise, it will not be connected.

Use service netif restart or init 6 to reboot the machine and let it connect to WiFi.

Are you the developer of the rtw8822ce driver? If so, may I ask how the 5G support is going?

Common misconception. 5G is a mobile telephone standard, Wifi 5 is 802.11ac and has nothing to do with cellular 5G. 5G also has nothing to do with the 5 GHz wireless bands 802.11ac can use.
