bwn0: failed to switch channel

[hugok79]

Hi,

During startup i get this message bwn0: failed to switch channel repeatedly.
My laptop has a Broadcom4312 wireless network driver.
I can't establish a connection.
In networkmgr I click in Enable Wifi 1 and nothing happens.

From some BSD that I tested only on MidnightBSD I was able to connect to the Internet out of the box.

Thanks

Hi @hugok79,

Try adding the following lines to /boot/loader.conf:

siba_bwn_load="YES"
if_bwn_load="YES"

and if it's a low power device, add

bwn_v4_lp_ucode_load="YES"

else add

bwn_v4_ucode_load="YES"

to /boot/loader.conf

Then reboot.

Added to /boot/loader.conf

siba_bwn_load="YES"
if_bwn_load="YES"
bwn_v4_lp_ucode_load="YES"

Problem solved!
