wlan* is the FreeBSD name for VAP interfaces, you don't have that in
NetBSD (unless you are running the wifi renovation branch).

Have you tried any of the patches suggested in the current email thread
on the axen(4) driver?

I think you will need to provide more information on your hardware for
anyone to be able to help with this.

What is the PCI ID of the wireless device?

How to raise iwm0?

[Lizbeth Mutterhunt, Ph.D]

As axen0 fails to connect, I want to try the wlan0, but  it won’t  be able to 
make a wlan0. I can’t find the iwm module in kernel config. Does it be named 
differently (I’ve got it from FreeBSD) or is just the hardware bad. I mean it’s 
unsupported, because I killed a Chromebook to an EFI machine. It’s a Gemini 
Lake.

Any ideas?
