Dear freebsd users, I have an acer aspire 1 running freebsd and I was able to connect with wireless when I ran freebsd 9 on it. Now running freebsd 11 and I get no carrier problems. I used to connect by following wblock's advice given in : http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/wireless.html I have followed steps carefully and have added to /etc/rc.conf root@aceraspire:~ # cat /etc/rc.conf | grep 'wlan0' wlans_ath0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="WPA SYNCDHCP" root@aceraspire:~ # cat /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf network={ ssid="GrullaHS" psk="password_goes_here" } root@aceraspire:~ # root@aceraspire:~ # ifconfig wlan0 list scan SSID/MESH ID BSSID CHAN RATE S:N INT CAPS GrullaHS 00:3a:99:24:6c:30 5 54M -78:-96 100 EPS WME GrullaHS 00:3a:99:34:79:f0 5 54M -86:-96 100 EPS WME GrullaHS 00:3a:99:34:04:50 5 54M -85:-96 100 EPS WME GrullaHS 00:3a:99:28:36:90 5 54M -91:-96 100 EPS WME GrullaHS 00:3a:99:34:7c:30 5 54M -89:-96 100 EPS WME root@aceraspire:~ # ale0: link state changed to UP ath0: ath_legacy_rx_tasklet: sc_inreset_cnt > 0; skipping ath0: ath_legacy_rx_tasklet: sc_inreset_cnt > 0; skipping wlan0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 ether 00:24:2c:73:85:e7 nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL> media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (autoselect) status: no carrier ssid "" channel 12 (2467 MHz 11g) regdomain 101 indoor ecm authmode WPA1+WPA2/802.11i privacy MIXED deftxkey UNDEF txpower 20 bmiss 7 scanvalid 60 protmode CTS wme burst roaming MANUAL bintval 0 groups: wlan How can I troubleshoot so I can get the wireless on this machine going? It used to connect without problems. Now I am using wired connection. Please advice me. I tried to add networkmgr by using pkg, but it is not available root@aceraspire:~ # pkg install networkmgr Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue... FreeBSD repository is up-to-date. All repositories are up-to-date. pkg: No packages available to install matching 'networkmgr' have been found in the repositories root@aceraspire:~ # Thanks, Antonio root@aceraspire:~ # uname -a FreeBSD aceraspire 11.0-RELEASE-p8 FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p8 #0: Wed Feb 22 06:06:13 UTC 2017 root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386
