em0 is working as expected, the main problem is on iwn, which in my case is:
iwn0@pci0:3:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x13118086 chip=0x00858086 rev=0x34
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = 'Centrino Advanced-N 6205 [Taylor Peak]'
class = network
After investigate a bit more I noted wpa_supplicant is exiting when I
change wlan0 mac address, and because of that my interface is
disconnected. If I start wpa_supplicant again it back to work.
# ifconfig wlan0 | grep status:
status: associated
# ifconfig wlan0 ether 60:67:20:c5:2d:49
# ifconfig wlan0 | grep status:
status: no carrier
# /etc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant restart wlan0
wpa_supplicant not running? (check /var/run/wpa_supplicant/wlan0.pid).
Starting wpa_supplicant.
# ifconfig wlan0 | grep status:
status: associated
It happens every time, even if I call ifconfig using the same mac
address already configured. In this case, that patch I submitted on
first email prevent the error to happen.
Attached you can see wpa_supplicant log, my understanding is the
relevant line is:
1498213478.949506: ioctl[SIOCS80211, op=20, val=0, arg_len=7]: Can't
