Wireless 3165, Intel Corporation

[Sergey]

Hi all,

Got a new laptop from HP and this Wi-Fi card on it:


none4 at pci0:3:0:0:       class=0x028000 card=0x40108086 chip=0x31658086 rev=0x81 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Intel Corporation'
    device     = 'Wireless 3165'
    class      = network

Sure, it is not recognized by the kernel.

The only mention of it I've found is:

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-wireless/2016-February/006465.html

and there is no visible solution.


I've  found  a  driver  here,  for iwa and iwl devices, it seems to be
suitable but is absent in my distribution.

   https://github.com/erikarn/freebsd-iwa/tree/master/src/sys/dev/iwa


Is  that  code worth  to  try  to add to the kernel and is there anywhere a
manual of adding a driver? Going to try myself.


My FreeBSD looks like:

vf# uname -a
