--- Comment #10 from Graham Perrin <grahamperrin@gmail.com> ---
I had symptoms of what may be the same bug on a different machine, an Ergo
Vista 621 https://forums.pcbsd.org/thread-20235.html and in this case, the =
GUI
to the Wi-Fi adapter was:=20

* present with 11.0-CURRENTOCT2015 updated from an earlier version of the OS

* not present with a clean installation of 11.0-CURRENTOCT2015

Following advice from LooX in irc://chat.freenode.net/#pcbsd I added a line=
 to=20
/etc/rc.conf

wlans_wpi0=3D"wlan0"

=E2=80=93 then a restart of the OS, and then Wi-Fi was configurable.=20

Now:=20
