it was totally because i fat fingered the binary path

hi deimosBSD

glad you figured it out :D

it turns out /usr/localbin/binary doesn't work ;)

FreeBSD 15 hardware supported wifi drivers list says that my wlan card is supported by the kernel but when I installed FreeBSD the wifi didn’t work

Realtek 8852BE Wi-Fi 6 (RTL8852BE) Is my wifi card

spaciouskarter78: I dont remember any 802.11ax cards being supported

even if they were supported, 802.11ax isnt within the ieee80211 stack

so it would only be able to use 802.11ac

the latest driver support was iwlwifi but thats intel, and rtwn is only for 802.11n/ac realtek cards

polarian freebsd.org/releases/15.0R/hardware/#wlan

riceandbeans: wow, as common as sshd is I would think it crashing often for many folks would be something fixed quickly

wow err

they really did LinuxKPI a lot

spaciouskarter78: is there anything under dmesg

did you kldload if_rtw89

it should automatically load

but make sure

and check for any errors within dmesg

polarian should I run the command named “dmesg”?

oh wait I saw it

nvm

its because of missing firmware

As well as kldload?

Oh

How do I fix it?

pkg install net/wifi-firmware-rtw89-kmod

and then reboot

Thanks a lot I’ll try that now and see if it works

running fwget should also fetch it
