You _either_ reboot _or_ run "service netif restart", it's
not needed to do _both_.

Again: That is the wired network card, which is obviously
not connected, so just _ignore it_.
WHat about the messages for the wireless adapter (iwn0, wlan0)?

See? It's not complicated when you follow the instructions.

Putting this error message into a search machine reults in
a quite interesting page:
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/45605/
Try changing
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA SYNCDHCP"
to
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP"
in /etc/rc.conf. Or might it be possible that you're trying
to get an address via DHCP from the _not connected_ wired
network card? To make sure that isn't a problem, add
ifconfig_msk0="down"
to /etc/rc.conf

No. The SSID is entered in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf, as
several answers have already shown.
It _might_ be possible that "regdomain FCC country US" is
causing trouble. I have no idea how it got into your
configuration. Maybe you comment that particular line
out, for testing? (It's in /etc/rc.conf, according to
your previous post.)

Yes, the installer creates /etc/rc.conf and inserts the values
which you've selected during installation (_not_ download!).

There are spaces which probably don't belong there. Make sure
there are _no_ spaces, i. e.:
network={
ssid="myssid"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
identity="myiden@uni-hamburg.de"
password="mypasswd"
}
Note that spaces matter.

Ha! Here we have it. Why do you try to obtain an IP from a
network card that has no cable in it? Comment that line,
or change it as mentioned above.

Enter the router info that you got from the WLAN maintainer.
It should be in the instructions, and the Linux version will
also name it correctly.

Comment it out.

Comment that one out, too.

Those are correct. If SYNCDHCP doesn't work, try DHCP.

Here is a space that doesn't belong there.

Okay.

As explained in the documentation, and in this message "thread",
several times. THe correct form is:
wlans_iwn0="wlan0"
Also read this:
http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2015-01-13-freebsd-10-iwn-problems.html
Even though the "n" problem shouldn't be there anymore (the
referenced text is from 2015), it illustrates the correct
syntax.
