Hello,
I post here following the advice of jggimi, from http://daemonforums.org. I bought a small PC Engines APU2C4 [1][2] with the wle200nx wireless module [3][4]. I installed OpenBSD 6.0 without any problems but I have an issue with the wireless module : the "link" is very slow when I successfully connect it (some times I can't). My mobile phone is a Honor 5C (Android 6.0) and connect perfectly to other WiFi Access Point (Raspberry Pi 3, various Internet boxes...) with a speed up to 50 or 70 Mb/s. When I succeed to connect to my PC Engines, my phone displays only 1 Mb/s speed link and the connection is not usable : every apps and Web pages time out. The strange thing is that with the PC Engines antennas, the power signal is -28/32 dBm versus a "poor" -45/54 dBm on my Raspberry Pi 3. To avoid channel interferences, I switched off the WiFi on my Internet box and Raspberry Pi 3 with no changes. Below is what I do... I boot with an empty "/etc/hostname.athn0" file. The status of the WiFi device... francois@openbsd60 [19:01:19]:~$ ifconfig athn0 athn0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lladdr XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX index 4 priority 4 llprio 3 groups: wlan media: IEEE802.11 autoselect status: no network ieee80211: nwid "" Then I enter some commands to enable WiFi Access Point... root@openbsd60 [19:08:03]:~$ ifconfig athn0 media autoselect mode 11g mediaopt hostap nwid pcengines wpa wpaprotos wpa2 wpakey 123456789 root@openbsd60 [19:09:26]:~$ ifconfig athn0 192.168.50.1 And the status become... root@openbsd60 [19:09:43]:~$ ifconfig athn0 athn0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lladdr XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX index 4 priority 4 llprio 3 groups: wlan media: IEEE802.11 autoselect (OFDM6 mode 11a) status: no network ieee80211: nwid pcengines wpakey 0x17ddcbf015970cf8bacc8b0702bc2babeb14c93b63ad694f60b115033d055a4c wpaprotos wpa2 wpaakms psk wpaciphers tkip,ccmp wpagroupcipher tkip inet 192.168.50.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.50.255 Logically, WiFi should be 11g but it looks to be 11a ???

And my phone can (at the time where I write this message) join the Acces Point but the speed is limited to 1 Mb/s and there is message about the connection status : "no Internet connection". I you have any clue... I add the dmesg output in case you would find relevant informations. root@openbsd60 [18:39:18]:~$ dmesg OpenBSD 6.0 (GENERIC.MP) #2319: Tue Jul 26 13:00:43 MDT 2016
