I just installed FreeBSD 12 onto an older PC, mostly just to play
around with it. Anyway, upon boot up I am presented with this message:
Autoloading module: if_bwi.ko
Autoloading module: if_bwn.ko
bwi0: <Broadcom BCM4318 802.11b/g Wireless Lan> mem 0xfdefe000-0xfdefffff irq 16

bwi0: MAC: rev 9

bwi0: invalid antenna gain in sprom
Configuring vt: keymap.
Autoloading module: uhid.ko
Autoloading module: ums.ko
I have not been able to get the wireless card to work, although I know
that it does because I had Windows 10 running on this PC. I also have
no idea what the "invalid antenna gain in sprom' means. Googling it has
not produced a lot of useful data. I am just wondering if anyone has
gotten this card to work and possible, what the 'sprom' warning is all
about.
