Hi all, i never had any wifi issues on my host, but since yesterday i was having trouble in connecting to my AP. First, it was like after every second reboot the wi-fi connection failed, the more i rebooted, the less successful connection i got. Today, it was not possible to connect to the AP at all after dozens of reboots and
Now the strange thing is, after running
Did someone experience the same issue? Could
During the wifi issues on freebsd, i booted into debian several time using a memory stick and wi-fi connection was not an issue there.

service netif restart. I enabled wlandebug -i wlan0 scan+auth+assoc and found in the logs that the wifi only does scanning but not associating with any APs.Now the strange thing is, after running
bsdconfig wireless and manually choosing to connect to an AP, everything works fine now, even after a reboot. I did not change the rc.conf nor wpa_supplicant.conf. Also the tunable for avoiding issues when running on machines with more than 4gb ram was also set correctly all the time.Did someone experience the same issue? Could
bsdconfig have possibly set any flags such that my wi-fi works again? I am using the rtw880 resp. wifi-firmware-rtw88-kmod-rtw8822c.During the wifi issues on freebsd, i booted into debian several time using a memory stick and wi-fi connection was not an issue there.
