Re: [beagleboard] BBGW crash

I found nodejs to be amazing!  My opinion:  go with the latest and greatest 
Nodejs v8.0 and try Javascript ES6 + HTML5 + WebSockets.
Javascript is now a reasonable language and a lot of the weirdness of 
working with it is gone.
I had good luck with this project:

https://www.hackster.io/Greg-R/beaglebone-green-wireless-irrigation-control-ce7c4b

Once I got the BBGW configured to a simple station, it performed perfectly.
If you have a wireless router in your home system, the AP stuff is only 
going to confuse.  Deactivate it.

I haven't ported it to stretch.  My personal opinion, wifi dog is overkill.

Seeed did all the wifidog work in Jessie.

Re: [beagleboard] BBGW crash

[William Hermans]

Well, considering the wireless beaglebone require a 4.4+ kernel, and 4.4+
kernels were not developed for this platform until the Jessie image was
used . . . Yes you need to use Jessie. I suppose you could *try* compiling
your own version of of the kernel for Wheezy. . . but god that would be a
nightmare.

 I'd like to find a "simpler" nodejs app to talk from a web-browser and

Yeah, seeed-wificonfig-installer requires bone101...

https://github.com/rcn-ee/repos/blob/master/seeed-wificonfig-installer/suite/jessie/debian/control#L11

so i see what you mean..

ps, in stretch, cloud9 is locked down to the "debian" user.. it's no
longer root..

this is favorite one:

http://www.robot-electronics.co.uk/eth8020-20-x-16a-ethernet-relay.html

right now, the one i have has 17 bone/bone varients hooked up...

Re: [beagleboard] BBGW crash

[Sebastián Sáez]

Robert,
When converting a seeedstudio image, does it install bone101 or cloud9?
I can not install it because it gives root access to anyone connecting to AP

Please recommend me some network pwr relay ?

sudo apt update
sudo apt install seeed-wificonfig-installer wifidog-gateway

(that's what converts an iot image to a seeed-iot image)

I'd like to find a "simpler" nodejs app to talk from a web-browser and connman..

Re: [beagleboard] BBGW crash

[Sebastián Sáez]

Good tips Greg, thank you.
I would like to use one of these IOT images but I need *wifidog *so my 
users can configure the home wifi.

I tried installing wifidog with these instructions without luck
Https://github.com/Pillar1989/wifidog-server

Is there any alternative to wifidog ?, my users do not know linux how to 
use connmanctl


Robert, I have another question for you,
Is it convenient to remotely update the kernel on a machine that I do not 
have physical access, is it possible to block it?


regards,
Sebastián

Re: [beagleboard] BBGW crash

[Greg]

I've got a BBGW bolted to the side of my house exposed to a sub-tropical 
climate.
I'm running without benefit of a UPS.  My home has a "whole" house surge 
suppressor.
I suppose the little 5V "wall wart" switching power supply is providing 
some isolation.

The WIFI is solid and quite reliable.  I have seen a few instances where I 
had to reboot the board when the WIFI dropped, however,
with the board in its remote location I am less motivated to analyze the 
problem.
I reboot by flipping a breaker in the main house panel in the garage.
WIFI has consistently come back up after reboot.

This area is one of the top areas in the world for lightning strikes, and 
the AC power is often very glitchy.

I'm surprised it has survived this long.  I'm totally satisfied with the 
level of reliability so far.
It will be interesting to see if the BBGW survives the long, hot summer.

The kernel info:

Linux beaglebone 4.4.48-ti-r88 #1 SMP Sun Feb 12 01:06:00 UTC 2017 armv7l 
GNU/Linux

I think the above is from the March version IOT Debian image at 
beagleboard.org.

Re: [beagleboard] BBGW crash

[Sebastián Sáez]

Thanks Robert, I already updated the kernel v4.9.x-ti to test it on a 
beaglebone I have here

I hope this also can solve the problem that sometimes the wifi does not 
work and only after several boot is fixed

and Greg, thanks for the log's tips


regards,
Sebastián

btw for up-time "reliability" i've been seeing much better uptime
performance with v4.9.x-ti, most cases they survive a week. (every 7-8
days, i update the board's debian userspace and kernel and reboot)

http://gfnd.rcn-ee.org:81/farm/uptime/

test-bbgw-* are the bbgw's...

sudo ./update_kernel.sh --lts-4_9

"r25" is known broken Kernel on the BeagleBone Green Wireless.

It took awhile, but we didn't figure out till mid Oct 2016, that one
of the pin's on the wl1835 module needs to be pulled low on startup.
Otherwise the wl1835 is actually entering a test mode on startup, thus
ending up completely un-usable..

The fix was first pushed on Oct 20, 2016 with "4.4.24-ti-r58"

So either, upgrade your kernel:

cd /opt/scripts/tools/
git pull
sudo ./update_kernel.sh

or grab a newer image:
