Re: [gentoo-user] wpa_supplicant not starting dhcpcd
I am very happy with systemd and I am getting used to it. I get my things to run and see also my system getting booted much faster as with openrc. But this is one other subject people have to decide for themselves on their behalf. best, Tamer On 2019-12-22 20:30, n952162 wrote: :-) openrc is a really big "plus" in gentoo. I avoid systemd.

Re: [gentoo-user] wpa_supplicant not starting dhcpcd
Hi,
I had the same issue.
1st you have to check how the ipaddresses are managed ?
Are you sure that you make use of gentoo network addressing and not th
systemd network manage ?
Be tripple sure of it, and have a look there:
/etc/systemd/network/
2nd. Your WLAN board should give ip-addresses away, not receive them.
The config_wlp3s0="dhcp" is totally wrong.
you must assign this wlan device an address, and configure it.
2nd, DHCPD gives IP-Adresses away through one address.
Config is here /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
for example, if the network card is 192.168.0.1 and you configured dhcpd
that everything that is wired to it, will receive an ip-address not the
wlan board.
dhcpd would look like this (for 2 networks on 2 boards)
You cannot have the same network on 2 boards.
#Wired Board
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
pool {
range 192.168.0.100 192.168.0.200;
default-lease-time 259200;
max-lease-time 518400;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
option routers 192.168.0.1;
option domain-name-servers 1.1.1.1;
}
}
#WLAN Config
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
pool {
range 192.168.1.100 192.168.1.200;
default-lease-time 259200;
max-lease-time 518400;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
option domain-name-servers 1.1.1.1;
}
}
What I would advise, is to setup a network bridge, and add the wlan and
lan device to it.
Then there is only one network.
best, Tamer
