https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=240776 Bug ID: 240776 Summary: [iwm] can't find wifi networks after short time since network restart Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: wireless Assignee: wireless@FreeBSD.org Reporter: johalun@FreeBSD.org This has been a long existing problem for on my Dell laptops. Always running recent 13-CURRENT and the hardware is iwm0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x00508086 chip=0x24fd8086 rev=0x78 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = 'Wireless 8265 / 8275' class = network The other Dell laptop has the previous generation of this chip. After using the laptop "normally" (wired or wireless) for a while, it stops finding networks on scan with the result that roaming almost never works (it doesn't find other networks as I move between work-home). I've tested this with and without lagg failover configured. As soon as I do 'service netif restart' it can again see all networks with 'ifconfig wlan0 scan'. For a while that is. After a short time (sub-hour to hours), scan will show either only a subset of networks or none at all and the only remedy is to tear down the interfaces and configure them again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
