Have been wrestling with wifi on BBB. I was following this thread and the webpage at http://octopusprotos.com/?p=37 for a static address.
I did go to amazon.com and buy the TP-LINK TL-WN722N. Did a fresh load of the BBB from a mid-september image then did 'opkg update ... ' as seen elsewhere. That got me recognizing the device. I installed wireless-tools. Then I replaced connman with /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/wpa_supplicant as in that octopusprotos.com posting. I had a terrible time. Device would attach then drop with reason=3. Then I discovered that I had two wpa_supplicants running! I commented out the pre-up line from the /etc/network/interfaces as found on octopusprotos and now things seem to be working swell. So my addition to the knowledge pile is not to run two wpa_supplicant processes. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
