realtek r8187 wi-fi

[sk8harddiefast]

Is something i can do for my wi-fi?
I think is not supported.
I have realtek r8187.

urtw(4) says it supports "Realtek RTL8187B/L USB IEEE 802.11b/g wireless network device". Untested by me; I'm skeptical of anything that's not Atheros, and even some things that are.

# apropos 8187 found this. It doesn't work to find everything, but usually it's worth a shot.

apropos 8187

REturn this:

urtw(4)                  - Realtek RTL8187B/L USB IEEE 802.11b/g wireless network device

How to enable module?

How to enable module?

urtw(4) means there's a man page about urtw in section 4. So you do
# man urtw

The man page tells how to either build it into the kernel or just load it in /boot/loader.conf.

There is no urtw device on my kernel.
Just add it and recompile kernel?

Easier to modify loader.conf like the man page says. For testing, you can just kldload(8) the module.

ok. urtw is up.
