To be more specific the modules are: if_wpi.ko wlan_amrr.ko wpifw.ko wlan_scan_sta.ko wlan_scan_ap.ko my pciconf looks like: # pciconf -lv | grep -B2 -A1 3945 none2@pci16:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x135c103c chip=0x42228086 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = '10418086 Intel 3945ABG Wireless LAN controller' class = network However, as you can see from the /boot/loader.conf, the missing modules are declared. firmware_load="YES" if_wpi_load="YES" wlan_load="YES" wlan_amrr_load="YES" legal.intel_wpi.license_ack=1 wpifw_load="YES" wlan_xauth_load="YES" wlan_wep_load="YES" wlan_ccmp_load="YES" wlan_tkip_load="YES" wlan_scan_sta_load="YES" wlan_scan_ap_load="YES" #Intel HDA Audio snd_hda_load="YES". >From the dmesg the only message related to the wireless is the following: KLD file wlan_amrr.ko - could not finalize loading regards Agostino --- Andrey wrote: > Hi, besideinfo! > > It sounds like you've not loaded properly all the > required modules. > > Make sure that everything you encountered in > /boot/loader.conf is > actually loaded (on this purpose use kldstat for > example.
