Recently I had to buy a new computer as my Mac broke down. I ended up with an Acer Aspire V17 Nitro, which, except for a couple of problems, is all good. One of the problems is that wifi does not work. The wifi driver is an Atheros AR9460. The problem is that when I attempt to scan for my wireless network, nothing shows up at all. On my previous computer, where I used an external Atheros card, everything worked well. Could the following line from dmesg be a symptom of my problems? "ath0: 2GHz radio: 0x0000; 5GHz radio: 0x0000" I'm using FreeBSD 11-CURRENT with sources updated today. Hope you can help me, and thanks in advance. A zip file, ath_error.zip should be attached. If not, it is available here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jfcjam3m63cmbcv/ath_error.zip?dl=0 Have a nice day, everyone.
