    [PC-BSD] Broadcom wireless on Dell doesn't turn on.

    Tried older Broadcom driver and it loaded successfully at startup. One more thing is left. Interface is not getting ip by DHCP automatically at startup. I have to type manually:wlan0 That's only command necessary and wireless is working. Wireless entries in /etc/rc.conf: wlans_ndis0="wlan0"...

    [PC-BSD] Broadcom wireless on Dell doesn't turn on.

    I'm loading module via loader.conf because I want it to load automatically at startup and that's what is said if you follow that link I posted before: Why shouldn't I follow handbook? Could be I understood incorrectly what was written in it... How do I unload module otherwise? I couldn't...

    [PC-BSD] Broadcom wireless on Dell doesn't turn on.

    Hi folks, Just started using Unix-type OS few days ago and now I have one problem. I can't get wireless device turning on (led is switched off) even though it's working on Windows. OS installed is PCBSD 8.1 so there should be no difference compared to FreeBSD. I have some kind of Dell mini...
