I can't seem to get wifi working on my BBB, and can't find any current info online. I'm running bone-debian-8.3-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-01-24-4gb.img with its default kernel 4.1.15-ti-rt-r43 on a good BBB (not the broken one I wrote about in other threads). The wifi adapter is an OurLink (https://www.adafruit.com/product/1012) which works perfectly on a Raspberry Pi.
I wasn't getting anywhere with connman so I uninstalled it and followed the instructions here (http://elinux.org/BBBWiFiConfigs#3._Modify_.2Fetc.2Fnetwork.2Finterfaces_file) etc/network/interfaces is: allow-hotplug wlan0 > iface wlan0 inet manual > wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf > iface default inet dhcp > > # The loopback network interface > auto lo > iface lo inet loopback > > # The primary network interface > auto eth0 > iface eth0 inet dhcp > # Example to keep MAC address between reboots > #hwaddress ether DE:AD:BE:EF:CA:FE > > # The secondary network interface > #auto eth1 > #iface eth1 inet dhcp > > # WiFi Example > #auto wlan0 > #iface wlan0 inet dhcp > # wpa-ssid "essid" > # wpa-psk "passphrase" > > # Ethernet/RNDIS gadget (g_ether) > # Used by: /opt/scripts/boot/autoconfigure_usb0.sh > iface usb0 inet static > address 192.168.7.2 > netmask 255.255.255.252 > network 192.168.7.0 > gateway 192.168.7.1 > > /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf is ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev > update_config=1 > network={ > ssid="galileo" > scan_ssid=1 > psk="my router's psk" > proto=RSN > key_mgmt=WPA-PSK > pairwise=CCMP > auth_alg=OPEN > } > > The ssid and psk in the file are correct; the router is configured to wpa2-psk and works fine for all other devices. The wifi adapter seems to be recognized. When it's plugged in dmesg shows: > [ 3330.645439] usb 1-1: SerialNumber: 00e04c000001 > [ 3330.661745] rtl8192cu: Chip version 0x10 > [ 3330.818499] rtl8192cu: MAC address: 00:e0:4c:08:ac:98 > [ 3330.818618] rtl8192cu: Board Type 0 > [ 3330.818858] rtl_usb: rx_max_size 15360, rx_urb_num 8, in_ep 1 > [ 3330.819108] rtl8192cu: Loading firmware rtlwifi/rtl8192cufw_TMSC.bin > [ 3330.821381] ieee80211 phy4: Selected rate control algorithm 'rtl_rc' > [ 3332.505433] rtl8192cu: MAC auto ON okay! > [ 3332.549124] rtl8192cu: Tx queue select: 0x05 > [ 3333.290384] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready > > If I run ifup wlan0 i can get it to appear in ifconfig, but it never gets an ip address : wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:e0:4c:08:ac:98 > inet6 addr: fe80::2e0:4cff:fe08:ac98/64 Scope:Link > UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 > RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 > RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) > > dhclient wlan0 gets nothing. and after running wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf I see multiple failed attempts to connect: wlan0: SME: Trying to authenticate with fc:f5:28:fe:1b:90 (SSID='galileo' > freq=2422 MHz) > wlan0: Trying to associate with fc:f5:28:fe:1b:90 (SSID='galileo' > freq=2422 MHz) > wlan0: Associated with fc:f5:28:fe:1b:90 > wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=fc:f5:28:fe:1b:90 reason=3 > locally_generated=1 > wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-SSID-TEMP-DISABLED id=0 ssid="galileo" auth_failures=1 > duration=10 reason=CONN_FAILED > > I'm absolutely certain that the passphrase I entered in wpa_supplicant.conf is correct. I see a lot of entries like this in my router's log (NBG6503 is the router model #) which seem to coincide with dhclient trying to get an address: NBG6503 user.notice kernel: (null) What am I missing? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
