0H147 : Applications -> Under Construction -> Network
Works for me with my ath0 wireless adapter. I will test on my Intel laptop later.
OK, so can we conclude that Network.app should do
when it is started?
After setting the correct regdomain with ifconfig I can now scan and connect with Wireless Networks.app again.
sudo ifconfig wlan0 down sudo ifconfig wlan0 regdomain ETSI country NO sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
Just a heads up that this is reproducible with a AR9462 card too. Is the solution, then, that when the Network application is moved from Under Construction, and starts on boot, that the issue will no longer exist?
0H147 : Applications -> Under Construction -> Network Scanning and connecting works on my second Intel laptop
https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?id=5fcdc19a81115d975e238270754e28557a2fcfc5 wpa: Address CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-FAILED May it be related to this behaviour?
step 1 After ifconfig DOWN and UP y was able to scan and connect to internet 😃 step 2 I was also able to reproduce again the issue with: netif stop wlan0 netif start wlan0 result: scan does not work step 3 jumped to step 1
I did it 5 times with the results as stated. Tested with hello-0.7.0_0G147-FreeBSD-13.0-amd64.iso
Down and Up did it for me.!! Up only didn’t.
*PC with Ralink RT2500 802.11bg (before this I was not able to get it working). *TOSHIBA SATELLITE S55t with Intel AC 3160 (before this I only got it working by pressing Fn+F12 keys). Both running on a freshly booted Live ISO: hello-0.7.0_0G140-FreeBSD-13.0-amd64. Complete shutdown after each test.
