Hello,
after doing my best trying to find a solution to this problem with no luck, I decided to ask for help here.
I hope there is a solution for this since it's driving me crazy.
I recently installed FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE, everything worked fine out of the box, including the wireless card (I only had to change DHCP to SYNCDHCP) but yesterday it started to give me problems.
At boot I get this error (not always but let's say 90% of the time):
As you can see in this case it manages to turn the wireless UP but that's an exception, most of the time it fails and keeps giving error messages even after I log in which makes it hard to work unless I start X and open a terminal there.
To configure it I followed the handbook.
My /boot/loader.conf:
My /etc/rc.conf:
My /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf:
After it fails, I wait for the login prompt, then login and restart it:
it usually takes 1-4 restarts before it starts working. I also noticed that sometimes it turns off and I have to restart again.
That's it, I really hope you can help me.
Thank you,
Rob
