Hi, Running this driver on my NEC Lavie HZ750 (same hardware as the Lenovo Lavie) and this is working fine. Thank you so much for your efforts to date. # pciconf -lv iwm0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x52108086 chip=0x095b8086 rev=0x61 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' class = network I was using code from http://github.com/rpaulo/iwm: commit 6d5cbfa58f152180bbf8f6bcda7c63a6a0abc59a Merge: 74ebc8a 68be4af Author: Adrian Chadd <adrian@freebsd.org> Date: Mon Jun 1 22:05:47 2015 -0700 I do get some errors, but the wireless still associates using WPA2 pre-shared key. Unfortunately, it seems to connect in 802.11b mode, even though I have tried forcing it to 802.11g or 802.11n modes with the following entry in /etc/rc.conf: ifconfig_wlan0="mode 11n country AU channel 11 WPA DHCP" "# service netif restart" gives the following errors: ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA (media): Device not configured kernel: iwm0: iwm_load_firmware: chunk 0 of 3 returned error 35 wpa_supplicant[1662]: ioctl[SIOCS80211, op=26, val=0, arg_len=0]: Operation not supported # ifconfig iwm0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 2290 ether 34:02:86:34:13:18 nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL> media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11b status: associated wlan0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 ether 34:02:86:34:13:18 inet 192.168.1.100 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL> media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11b status: associated ssid 17aHindmarshAve channel 11 (2462 MHz 11b) bssid 04:f0:21:14:c9:7d regdomain ROW country AU authmode WPA2/802.11i privacy ON deftxkey UNDEF AES-CCM 2:128-bit AES-CCM 3:128-bit txpower 30 bmiss 10 scanvalid 60 roaming MANUAL groups: wlan Note that the new Lenovo X1 Carbon gen3 has the same hardware, so should give similar results.
