Hi,
I have reports from at least three people saying that atfer the March 27
update associating has become hard and they see firmware crashes.
These were on 8265 / 9560 chipsets. Some of you tried to gather data
for me as well, testing out patches without a positive outcome.
I've been able to reproduce this in the lap with a freshly installed 8265.
Just wanted to give you that update that I am looking into it.
I hope I'll have a further update soon.

I was one of those people reporting this. I have an 8265.
For me, applying Bjoern's rssi patch AND also making sure that iwm does
not load first by using in rc.conf:
devmatch_blacklist="if_iwm.ko"
solves the firmware crash and allows iwlwifi to load and associate cleanly
on boot.
I'll be testing this - can you point me to the patch in question (I
think I missed it..?)
It'll be in main in the next hour or so. I'll post a cherry-pick line
for people on stable as soon as it is.
