Hi, I'm trying to get wifi working on a Beaglebone Black with an Edimax EW7811-UN USB dongle. I started with the image bone-debian-8.5-console-armhf-2016-08-14-2gb.img and installed connman and firmware-realtek via apt. My goal is to automatically provide an wifi access point after boot. Some months ago I successfully build a similar setup, but based on an older Debian image. When booting the BBB, the wifi dongle is deactivated (led is off). When I execute connmanctl enable wifi I get the message Error wifi: Already enabled. When I execute connmanctl disable wifi and then connmanctl enable wifi, the dongle gets activated and the led turns on. Instead of disabling and enabling via connmanctl, I can also restart the connman daemon with systemctl restart connman.service to activate the dongle. Does anybody know what to do to have the wifi automatically activated after boot?
