  1. Huh, looks like with my Chinese copy of Intel 8260 AC (TL-8260D2W) — the iwlwifi is the good choice since the great work made by #FreeBSDFoundation Laptop Initiative :drgn_aww:

    (if I don't care about upload speed. And yes, I don't care)

    Iwm driver: 10.1 Mbps / 2.6 Mbps download/upload, 29 ms jitter (1st screenshot)

    Iwlwifi: 22.4 Mbps / 5.0 Mbps download/upload 0 ms jitter (2nd screenshot)

    Wifibox: 17.4 Mbps / 27.8 Mbps download/upload, 0 ms jitter (3rd screenshot)

    Obviously the same (shitty) AP from ISP was used.

  2. @herrbischoff I understand the use of #Freebsd as a server is their priority, not desktop/laptop, but I'm sure it would be a success with better #wifi management (and suspend maybe, I don't know the state of it nowadays). #TrueOS was gathering a lot of audience until they drop the desktop environment, which mean a lot of people are interested in this concept.

    edit: that said, I've yet to test #wifibox. Can you tell us more about your experience with it ?
