ifconfig iwn0 .... says "interface iwn0 does not exist".  Also starting wpa_supplicant doesn't work (I use a wpa setup that did work on my previous laptop on FreeBSD 10).

At install time I only "configured" ethernet, iwn0 I skipped since I intented to configure that later.  But that may not be relevant.
