      I saw a REALLY old post, saying it would be years before it's supported. I see iwm(4) in FreeBSD but is it as simple as adding iwm7260fw_load="YES" or not in pfSense?

      I am not sure if the underlying FreeBSD is whole or has been gutted.

      I get the whole "Just use a frickin' Access Point MAN!" but I was getting these Jetway boxes and I can only get the wireless ones because Jetway doesn't stock the non wireless ones and it would be nice if it has some wireless capability.

        If you want to use it as an AP, it's not going to work.
        From the man page, no mention of hostap
        iwm supports station mode operation.
