Hi, I have recently built a new kernel to get my intel 2200 wireless adapter working and am still having some problems. I put the following in my kernel config file; device iwi device pci device wlan device firmware I compiled and installed the new kernel successfully. I also pplaced the following in my /boot/loader.conf file; legal.intel_iwi.license_ack=1 iwi_base_load="YES" iwi_ibss_load="YES" iwi_monitor_load="YES" but when I try the following; dhclient iwi0 i get; iwi0: no link........................... giving up also when I try ifconfig iwi0 up scan the system just hangs. I have had a look at /var/log/messages and found the following lines: module_register_init : MOD_LOAD (iwi_bss_fw, 0xc45f25a0, 0) error 1 kernel: firmware_get : failed to load firmware image iwi_base kernel : iwi0 : could not load firmware I have no idea what any of this means, but it may have been before I added the entried to /boot/loader.conf Thanks for any help, Brett.
