So I tried adding the lines into crontab: @reboot root /sbin/kldload /boot/kernel/if_ndis.ko >/dev/null 2>&1 @reboot root /sbin/kldload /boot/modules/bcmwl5_sys.ko >/dev/null 2>&1 Firstly, for some reason, this method fails to load bcmwl5_sys.ko with the error message: KLD bcmwl5_sys.ko: depends on ndis - not available or version mismatch However, command 'kldload /boot/modules/bcmwl5_sys.ko' typed manually after boot succeeds without any messages. This is a mystery to me, why one way to run it produces this message and another one doesn't. And '/etc/rc.d/netif start' still doesn't start wifi even though all kernel modules were loaded after kernel boot. Yuri
