Hello again.

Just another curiosity.
I've never installed a firmware for iwlwifi; however I've seen in another thread that I should perhaps use fwget.

Currently firmware is still in sys/ but will be removed soon-ish.


#fwget
Needed firmware packages: 'gpu-firmware-intel-kmod-geminilake wifi-firmware-iwlwifi-kmod-9000' pkg: No packages available to install matching 'wifi-firmware-iwlwifi-kmod-9000' have been found in the repositories

Why is that?  Which version of FreeBSD are you on?


In ports I see net/wifi-firmware-iwlwifi-kmod, but it seems it's not the same thing.

It is; the -9000 at the end is a flavour as you only need the firmware
bits for these chipsets but not for all the possible cards.


Should I install it?

Probably a good idea so once the one from sys will be removed you'll be
streamlined already.


Apparently it doesn't make any difference...

It does a tiny bit; it prepare for the future.
