bsdconfig

Hi! 
  I am using Intel 8270AC wireless on xiaomi notebook 12.5 with Intel 6y30 CPU. And I can only write my wifi information in file /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf. I cannot change wifi by command "bsdconfig". I click any wifi ssid will get no reply because of that I cannot input anything such my password. Please look at the photo.

Sorry. It should be intel 8260AC, and I can't change it again.

The password was I wrote in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf not directly here.

I can't select anything except "EXIT".

I've found the same issue.

Looking at the bsdconfig source, the WiFi section has several TODO's, it cannot join a network or edit an existing network, the code is not there, just a few "XXXDT Unfinished" comments.

I'm going to take a stab at writing it and see how I get on!
