Personally I find that wifibox is seamless, giving me modern 802.11ac speeds on my FreeBSD laptop. Not ideal, of course, but it removes a major pain point.

- dilippkumar 4y agoUnrelated: What's the current state of FreeBSD on a laptop? What's the recommended hardware setup? Is it something I'd feel confident travelling with as my primary computing machine?
- vermaden 4y agoIt all depends on your needs. I am using FreeBSD on my desktops/laptops since about 2006. I work with Linux systems (mostly RHEL/SLES/Ubuntu) and some other UNIX systems daily and I still prefer to use FreeBSD for its features and simplicity. More about these here: - https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2020/09/07/quare-freebsd/ https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2020/09/07/quare-freebsd/ You can use for example ThinkPad X1 Carbon 6th edition for some more modern hardware. I really love this old 7-row classic ThinkPad keyboard so I use ThinkPad W520 from 2011 (last one with such keyboard). Here is a list with FreeBSD laptops with various features tested: - https://wiki.freebsd.org/Laptops https://wiki.freebsd.org/Laptops I write and maintain my own 'FreeBSD Desktop' series here: - https://vermaden.wordpress.com/freebsd-desktop/ https://vermaden.wordpress.com/freebsd-desktop/ ... but there are plenty of other such guides - just type "FreeBSD laptop" or "FreeBSD desktop" to get more howtos. Regards.
