            Bug ID: 247625
           Summary: Intel 7260 (iwm) will not connect to access point
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.1-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: wireless
          Assignee: wireless at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: cwr at sdf.org

Hello,

I have an Intel 7260 wireless card that is failing to connect to my access
point.

I am filing this bug because I was originally trying to get the card working in
Haiku OS, which pulls its wireless drivers from FreeBSD.

The exact same card has no issues connecting running various flavors of Linux.
Other devices running a myriad of OS (Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, iOS,
Android) have no trouble connecting to the same AP/SSID (Ruckus R510, WPA2).

I tested this on FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p6.

Here is what I see in /var/log/messages:

wlan0: Trying to associate with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (SSID="xxxx" freq=2462 MHz)
FT: Invalid group cipher (0)
Failed to add supported operating classes IE
wlan0: Authentication with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx timed out.
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (SSID="xxxx" freq=2462
MHz)
wlan0: Trying to associate with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (SSID="xxxx" freq=2462 MHz)
FT: Invalid key management type (2)
Failed to add supported operating classes IE

This behavior is similar to what occurs in Haiku: the card tries to associate
(multiple times), but fails.

Other users of Haiku OS also have problems with the 7260 working reliably:

Thank you!
