In FuryBSD (FreeBSD 12.1 based) recognized and find some APs.

As far as I can tell, the realtekwifi driver code does the exact same thing on both FreeBSD 12.1 and the code we have (which I think is from 12.0 but I could be misremembering.) Can you post a FreeBSD kernel log here, please?

Sorry, i clear usb flash with FuryBSD, but i almost forgot, i tried FreeBSD 12.1 base installation, and it didn`t find the card even after if_urtwn_load="YES" in loader.conf. I will try BSD again tomorrow and get logs.

Do you mean it now works?

comment:6 by liss21, 4 years ago

No, it does not work. This is due to the features of wireless network switches in Lenovo laptops. If specifically on this netbook there is a Wi-Fi hardware switch, and additionally a combination of keys, (hardlock and softlock, respectively). With softlock, equipment is detected but does not work. As I understand it, we do not have a mechanism for working with softlock. In other laptops, all the cards that I checked in this netbook work.

Well, then the ticket should stay open as Haiku can or should do something different, then.
