Created attachment 216341 [details] diff to add info about 802.11b/g mode limitations The iwm(4) driver currently only works in 802.11b/g modes. It will not associate to access points that operate only in 802.11n or 802.11ac modes. This is not documented in the man page, and it probably should be. diff attached to make the addition in the "Description" section.
