hd_scania your Atheros NIC may be too recent for ath(4) to support IEEE 802.11n, hence you may want to try force your access point to fallback to 11g, by doing:

$ sysrc create_args_ath0+="mode 11g"

It’s NOT a fresh installation, if i’m needed to fresh install this will downgrade to 12.1-STABLE, at my fresh install the wifi was fine, but by having upgraded to CURRENT (but the FreeBSD-pkg’s ABI was still 12.1) the wifi no longer works
