[-- Attachment #1 --] Is the iwlwifi driver supported with lagg interfaces? I have iwlwifi working well by itself with an AX201 device on 13.1-STABLE (stable/13-n250682-58f49b7da7d), but when I add it to a lagg interface, wlan0 is not added as a lagg port on boot. I suspect this is because I have lagg compiled in my kernel and iwlwifi is loaded as a module. Also, if I restart netif service after booting, the kernel panics. Relevant rc.conf lines: ifconfig_re0="ether c4:75:ab:f3:f9:6c" wlans_iwlwifi0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="WPA" cloned_interfaces="lagg0" ifconfig_lagg0="laggproto failover laggport re0 laggport wlan0 DHCP" I've also tried disabling devmatch and putting iwlwifi in kld_list. This results in wlan0 being put in lagg as desired, but wireless doesn't work at all - scans return nothing. I suspect this is because firmware is not being found/loaded when I set things up this way, but haven't confirmed yet. Thanks for the help, John [-- Attachment #2 --] <div dir="ltr"><div>Is the iwlwifi driver supported with lagg interfaces?
