Re: Problems with WiFi networks - HP 255 G7, FreeBSD 14.2

Thanks for the attention, both of you.

Here i share the output of the commands you requested:

dmesg: https://pastebin.com/pYWAkSed

ifconfig: https://pastebin.com/JcETgrGU

netstat -r: https://pastebin.com/298KabLG

netstat -r4n: https://pastebin.com/5kMhuFB6

And my rc.conf file: https://pastebin.com/55Gt0yGG

> There should be a file in /var/db/dhclient.leases.*

I could not find it, everything mentioned after /var/db was not in the
location.

So i could not delete it as you suggested.

Running $ dhclient -d wlan0 outputs: https://pastebin.com/VSRPTUD2
