Since I last brought up wifi on a BBB rev c apparently a new way has become
standard for configuring wifi. connmanctl With a couple BBB rev C that I
have run Wheezy on with Edimax USB wifi dongles receiving a DHCP ip v4
address after modifying /etc/network/interfaces. I'm trying to flash a
jessie image on those same rev C BBBs and dongles and bring up wifi. I've
tried all of these three images
.
bone-debian-8.4-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-05-13-4gb.img
and
BBB-blank-debian-8.5-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-06-19-4gb.img
and
bone-debian-8.5-iot-armhf-2016-06-19-4gb.img
Am I using the correct image? Did I miss some RTFM?
I just uncomment the flasher line in uEnv.txt and boot. No messing with
holding buttons down anymore right? Seems to work.
With both images I get the following running connmanctl Which doesn't look
like what I've seen in threads here in the Google Groups BBB forum.
A quick ifconfig first
