To get live information about the connection I made a conky script that looks like this..

`#!/bin/sh

while true; do
wpa_cli status | grep "ip_address" | awk '{ sub("ip_address=", "", $1); print $1 }' > /tmp/wifibox_ip
bssid=$(wpa_cli status | grep "bssid=" | awk '{ sub("bssid=", "", $1); print $1 }')
printf "%s" "$bssid" > /tmp/wifibox_bssid
~/bin/wifi_strength.sh > /tmp/wifibox_signal_strenght
sleep 5
done
`

Oh, that is nice! @krolingo would you like to me to include this script?

I posted about it on my blog: https://eldapper.wordpress.com/2023/01/30/my-freebsd-dashboard/

You decide to do with it whatever you want ;)

And thank you for Wifibox! it has made my FreeBSD experience 100% better

I still could not decide how to carry on with this, but I will leave this issue open as a pointer for others for now.

@krolingo I have converted your issue to a discussion. I believe that is probably a better way to communicate its contents.
