Hello,
I am brand new to FreeBSD and I am trying to get a new installation off the ground. My network connection worked at first, but very slowly, then has become more intermittent over time. I can try to get my rc.conf info, but it is difficult because my internet is not working on the FreeBSD partition. However, I have not modified it, so it is as the installer created it. I am on an Asus U46e laptop with the Intel 6500 wireless card. I loaded the module for this chipset, but that did not seem to help. The internet usually connects but runs at a speeds so slow it is crippling (usually around 300 Bp downloads). As a result, I cannot download any of the ports because they keep timing out. I did manage to get through the first
My computer is a dual boot with a Windows partition which has been able to get download speeds of up to 3 Mbps, so the hardware on the computer and the router both work. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. I have tried to go through the handbook, but I haven't had much luck.
