Bjoern, Thank you a lot for your quick response. I'll gladly wait until we can enjoy the latest iwlwifi efforts on stable/13= (either via the upcoming script you mentioned to cherry-pick from HEAD or = via the later MFCs). Thank you a lot for your efforts on this front. It's really appreciated. WiFi is definitely the main reason keeping me from using FreeBSD as a daily= driver on my laptop(s). Keep up the good work! :) Best regards, ~ Joel =E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90 Original Me= ssage =E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90=E2=80=90 On Tuesday, November 30th, 2021 at 01:00, Bjoern A.
