<div>I've had some luck with manually running wpa_supplicant (with -i <interface name>) and then calling dhcpcd <interface name> manually, it was from netBSD but there is a good chance open has similar commands.<br></div>

<div> One thing that I've found, at least with the iwn drivers is that they don't<br></div>
