https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=263632 --- Comment #34 from Jonathan Vasquez <jon@xyinn.org> --- Hey Bjoern, I wanted to give an update since I recently purchase a new Intel AX210 card (and swapped out my Atheros chip - which has been working pretty well but FreeBSD in general has slow performance with basically all of the wireless chips I've tried) in order to re-test the iwlwifi driver. These results are on the latest FreeBSD 14-RELEASE (FreeBSD leslie 14.0-RELEASE-p6 FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE-p6 #0: Tue Mar 26 20:26:20 UTC 2024 root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC amd64). The good news is that the basic packet passing is working and I can reach the internet, my NAS (over NFS), watch videos, and that sort of basic stuff. The bad news is that if I put the machine to sleep and then resume, even if it doesn't crash during the first attempt, the connection never automatically works again. ifconfig mentions that it's still associated, but I can't ping anything. After putting the machine to sleep/resumed a few more times in a row, I eventually got the machine to crash on the third attempt. This was connected on 2.4 GHz frequency. Attempting to connect to my 5 GHz channel never worked. I did see it associated for a few seconds, and then disconnected (same passphrase and I know both of my frequencies work perfectly fine with my other devices). Another thing is that the performance of the chip is just way to slow to be usable. I tried transferring a 2.1 GB file and after 6 minutes I gave up. I tried transferring a 684 MB file from my NAS (over NFS) and it took 14 minutes to complete. I did see the following line in `ifconfig` slowly drop from 54 Mbps to about 6 Mbps over the duration of the 14 minutes, it may have even dropped lower: media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet OFDM/54Mbps mode 11g -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
