Hi
I got a new laptop (Acer E5-573) that has an atheros wireless adapter.
However, the driver available with Freebsd 10.2 does not recognise the adapter, and I don't see the wlan0 interface.
Here are relevant lines from
$ pciconf -lv
none2@pci0:3:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x080611ad chip=0x0042168c rev=0x30
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'
class = network
dmesg shows one following lines for the same device.
pci3: <network> at device 0.0 (no driver attached)
any help in getting this working appreciated.
thanks,
Sreenath
