Solved Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 Wi-Fi network can't work in freebsd 14

I think this is an old method. The workaround I see people recommending is to install wifibox. It creates a Linux virtual machine to operate the wifi adapter on behalf of the host.
Not as old as unix. Dear fff2024g, get a usb stick for WiFi. I have 2.
I used then in 12.2 and now in 13.1 after the Intel chip or whatever in my lenovo 520 died.
 
Intel-branded stuff should work with the iwlwifi driver, but as things stand now, FreeBSD's network stack supports G-speeds, not AX-speeds. Most of the time, the bandwidth rating doesn't really matter, though - just because the card is AX, it means nothing, the bottleneck is elsewhere along the wiry pathway.
 
Configure the wireless interface
Register all your SSID in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf:

network={
ssid="My_Home_Network" # Here is your SSID
scan_ssid=0
psk="AZERTYUIOP" # Here is you WiFi password
priority=1
}
# The following is needed for open WiFi networks
network={
priority=0
key_mgmt=NONE
}
Enable the wpa_supplicant service by adding the following in the /etc/rc.conf file

# Enable wpa supplicant the service
wpa_supplicant_enable="YES"
# Name the wireless interface `wlan0`
wlans_iwlwifi0="wlan0"
Configure the wlan0 interface

ifconfig_wlan0="WPA SYNCDHCP"
defaultrouter="192.168.1.1"
Start the wpa_supplicant service

service wpa_supplicant start


when you configure inter ax201 , it will work in freebsd 14.
