This morning I updated my laptop system to 11-BETA3. The WiFi card uses iwn:
iwn0@pci0:3:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x13118086 chip=0x00858086
rev=0x34$
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = 'Centrino Advanced-N 6205 [Taylor Peak]'
class = network
At boot time the interface takes a very long time to associate and dhclient
fails to get an address for it. I have 'ifconfig_wlan0="WPA SYNCDHCP"' in
/etc/rc.conf, but that did nto help. After the startup, the interface was
associated, but had no address other than link-local and no routes.
I did "service dhclient restart wlan0" which assigned the address and that
resolved hte issue until I reboot.
Is this a known issue? Should I open a bug report? This would leave me in a
bad position should I ever need to reboot the system remotely or should it
crash when I am not near the system.
