> Have a look at ports/net-mgmt/wifimgr I had a look at ports/net-mgmt/wifimgr I am quite new in FreeBsd but in my case it does not work , ie : I start a xfce4 session for a (non-root) user open the wifimgr from the 'network' menu provide root password as requested but then it hangs forever on my laptop Did anyone successfully used wifimgr ? If yes, what could I check to make it work ? PS : I am using FreeBsd 8.0 on an (old) Thinkpad laptop with ipw-2100 wireless card Regards Eric On Sun, Dec 20, 2009 at 3:03 AM, Glen Barber <glen.j.barber@gmail.com> wrote: > On Sat, Dec 19, 2009 at 8:59 PM, Yuri <yuri@rawbw.com> wrote: >> How do I launch network manager that allows to visually manage WiFi and LAN >> connections? >> I have FreeBSD on a laptop and I have to establish WiFi connections manually >> -- it's very inconvenient. > > You can always edit wpa_supplicant.conf(5) - you don't need to use WPA/WPA2... > >> >> In Kubuntu this problem is solved and WiFi management is very easy.
