Re: urtwn0 - driver didn't set altq_maxlen

[Ron Georgia]

Peeter,

thank you so much for your response. I added (and updated) my rc.conf 
file as you prescribed and my USB wifi works. I still see the "wlan0: 
driver didn't set altq_maxlen", but as long as it doesn't interfere I'll 
dig into that later.

Just for completeness, this is all I have in /etc/rc.conf for wifi:

---
# dhcpcd
dhcpcd_enable="YES"

# realtek usb wifi
if_urtwn_load="YES"

# wpa_supplicant
wpa_supplicant_program="/usr/local/sbin/wpa_supplicant"

# wlan
wlans_urtwn0="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA"

Hello

I have the same usb wifi stick, and I see the same error, but that
does not prevent it from working. Can you check that the rest of the
setup in /etc/rc.conf is fine? I have

dhcpcd_enable="YES"

and the rest is the urtwn, wlans and wpa_supplicant as in the
handbook. Check that the wpa_supplicant connects. Check that the
dhcpcd is running; or restart it to be sure.

Cheers

All,

I have a USB Wifi adapter (MAC/BB RTL8188CUS, RF 6052 1T1R) that is
having problems initializing. I did do some poking around and updated
loader.conf (see below) but that does not seem to help. When I do and
ifconfig wlan0 I see the SSID, but not IPv4, instead I see a "driver
didn't set altq_maxlen" error. This is not a new USB adapter, maybe 3 or
4 years old. I am able to scan the networks with ifconfig wlan0 scan,
but I cannot connect to my home network (yes, the password is correct.)
Not sure what might be needed. I can post my full dmesg in paste bin if
that helps.
