− | You originally created a "wlandev" when first setup your wifi connection. This is here as a detail configuration note example.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <code><nowiki>#</nowiki> ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev rtwn0</code>
| + | |
− | Section 31.3.6.1
| + | |
− | <code><nowiki>#</nowiki> ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 </code>
| + | |
− | <code><nowiki>#</nowiki> ifconfig wlan0 list caps</code>
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Or Adhoc Mode section 31.3.5
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <code><nowiki>#<nowiki> ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 wlanmode adhoc </code>
| + | |
− | <code><nowiki># </nowiki>ifconfig wlan0 up scan</code>

− | ifconfig wlan0 up scan

− | You can look at the code for wpa_supplicant.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Here's the man page, https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=wpa_supplicant&sektion=8

| + | |
− | | + | |
− | "sysctl -n net.wlan.devices" will give you the device
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | "pciconf -lv" will give you the vendor and device in the output
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | The device driver and wpa_supplicant source code can provide details.

− | If you have already set up your wireless card then run this command
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | ifconfig wlan0 list scan
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | It will list all the wireless networks that the card can see along side some of the features offered.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | You can then edit /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf and enter the details of the wireless network you want to connect to.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Also, man ifconfig will give you all the things you can do with your wireless card.
