BSDobelix|2 months ago FreeBSD 15 had a massive improvement with WiFi, however if you let your Computer auto-connect to a "unknown" Network...well that's not good. TekMol|2 months ago My question was about known networks.As far as I know, access points only identify via their SSID. Which is a string like "Starbucks".
