I did run "wlandebug +scan", then ifconfig wlan0 up scan and then "vmstat -ia | grep ath0". The only output I got from "vmstat -ia | grep ath0" is: irq18: ath0 21 0 The second time I ran that last command I got irq18: ath0 22 0 It is worth mentioning that wifi with this Atheros card works just fine on Windows (I am using this wlan when typing this answer on Windows). There is a button that seems to enable airplane mode, but pressing this button does not seem to change anything as far as FreeBSD is concerned. Other than that button I can't find any button that enables or disables wifi.
