I've a dell latitude with an onboard iwm0, [ no iwlwifi.ko on the system ],
and a small usb dongle rtwn0.
going thru all manner of configurations, 'service netif start' has wpa_supplicant giving up.
.............................
3 entries for the rtwn in loader.conf were not enough.
wlan1="WPA SYNCDHCP" after wlans_rtwn0="wlan0" etc,
........
13.0-STABLE.
....
in one run of
wpa_supplicant -i wlan1 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf, after a meticulous load of all rtwn drivers, an ioctl error appeared.
..........
So the em0, as a last resort: [ don't know why it has dhcp in rc.conf...
I am trying to get the knowledge to do a
' ifconfig em0 inet 192.168...... netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default .........
which I used for over ten years with other ethernet.
I suppose the other machine with a working ethernet on the lan, with a gateway of 192.168.0.1 and a network of 192.168.0.0/24
and 192.168.0.4 in use, mean the commands should avoid collision to get a lease from the same router.
......
Anyone use this latter methodology and suggest how to fill the missing numbers above? { .... > numbers }
....
Pardon the terse questions, typing into the forum is laggy today.
Trying to get network up.

Re: Trying to get network up.
Following web examples,
ifconfig em0 inet 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default 192.168.0.1 # the lan part on the router
" network is unreachable"
....
also dug out an eu0/axe0 usb-to-ethernet, recieved "device not configured" at connection attempts
ifconfig em0 inet 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default 192.168.0.1 # the lan part on the router
" network is unreachable"
....

Re: Trying to get network up.
make sure you set the default route as well, my script. mine deletes anything previously configured. Also check out your /etc/resolv.conf as well
#!/bin/sh
sudo ifconfig wlan0 inet 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0
sudo route delete default ; sudo route add default 192.168.0.1
sudo
#!/bin/sh
sudo ifconfig wlan0 inet 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0
sudo route delete default ; sudo route add default 192.168.0.1
sudo

Re: Trying to get network up.
Running out of time, I reverted it to Freebsd-14, where I discovered:
rtwn0-usb, onboard wifi, failures most likely due low battery life
Even if wlan1 showed "associated" , internet did not come up for some reason...
I finally got ethernet with em0. ifconfig: route add default: after countless hours of retesting ... similar to the post above.
At least I learned a whole lot.
