When attempting to configure menu I select the iwn0 option.

Network media type [autoselect]: (I just hit enter)
Perform DHCP autoconfiguration: YES (I hit enter)

It attempts to configure DHCP which fails.
I get the below errors.

iwn0: crystal calibration failed
iwn0: could not initialize hardware

After network configure failed.

This is what happens during the installation because you are using the
install kernel. What happens after you reboot?

Should you have the same problem I think you should submit a bug report.

-- Ottavio

After install and reboot I did added a wpa_supplicant.conf file with information about my network. I updated rc.conf with this information.

After that I rebooted.
Upon reboot it continually loops through the attempt to configure iwn0.
I had to alt-ctrl-f2 to get a terminal I could log into to do
dmesg >> dmesg.txt

This is what I get.

iwn0: crystal calibration failed
iwn0: could not initialize hardware
iwn0: cannot assign link-local address
iwn0: fatal firmware error
firmware error log:
  error type      = "UNKNOWN" (0x00001999)
  program counter = 0x00013688
  source line     = 0x0000012F
  error data      = 0x00000001000000A4

  interrupt link  = 0x0000C17A00000000
  time            = 28083

Please let me know what I may have done wrong or how I should proceed.
Please let me know if there is further information I can provide to help diagnose.

Thanks.

Jimmie
