I found the cause of the problem with various wireless NICs printing an err= or that says "Need multicast update callback." The problem is driver specific= and multiple drivers have this issue. The cause is that the affected device drivers are not updating the function pointer in the ieee80211com struct in= the file /usr/src/sys/net80211/ieee80211.c. The wlan driver initializes the structure with default values in ieee80211_ifattach. Then the device driver updates the function pointers to point to routines within itself. As it tu= rns out, the drivers that have this problem is missing the callback function. = The drivers that seem have this issue are as follows: an bwi bwn ipw iwi malo mwl ral <--- Confirmed (I'm using this one.) wi wpi Interestingly enough, the same issue exists with the same drives with the promiscuous mode callback as well. There is a third callback only known as= chw that affects even more drivers.
