BPI-R2 2.4Ghz and 5.6Ghz Wifi Working fine

I discovered the same behaviour with LAN interface as well. Everytime I boot R2 up it has different MAC on LAN interface it is connected to network and obtains different IP from DHCP. Setting the static MAC in NetworkManager doesn’t help.

for LAN-Interfaces there is a fix using /etc/network/interfaces:

hwaddress ether ...

It Will be suported on LEDE?

i’m sure it will be ported to lede-kernel to (and hopefully to 4.14) if it’s working correctly

the existing issues (random mac-Adress which resulting different devices by udev, 2 wlan-devices for 1 physical [client vs ap]) must be fixed first and then the device must be detected without starting anything or any echo…it’s ok during wifi-debugging, but not for stable usage

home-routerboard without wlan-AP is quite useless

Hello do you have some news for Ap-Mode on Ubuntu? Do you plan a new ubuntu image with APMode and Vlan/switch mode?

Hi @garywang , once I enable the driver (using init.d and doing echo A to enable AP too), I get the following log in dmesg, any idea? I think wifi crashes the kernel at some point, for example I had to reboot the board after hours because I was not able to login to it via SSH anymore and the board was offline (the bridge was working but the OS wasn’t). I only noticed following logs so ATM I’m testing without enabling MT6625. I’m using latest Ubuntu kernel (commit 81d24bb)

Hi Enfide

Please remove the wpa_supplicant package when it’s in AP mode, because it will cause this issue.

Thank you Gary! Sorry for the question, I forgot about it…

To disable the service from systemd I executed:

systemctl mask wpa_supplicant.service

So I can still use wpa_supplicant on other interfaces. nmcli doesn’t work anymore for wifi devices but this is not an issue as we use hostapd to provide AP.

Hello do you have some news for Ap-Mode on Ubuntu?

Do you plan a new ubuntu image with APMode and Vlan/switch mode?

Or a clear instructions for use wifi apmode a switch/vlan?

switch/vlan will not be available in 4.4.70, ap seems to work stable in my (short) tests

why a new image when you simply can replace kernel?

Just out of simplicity, I don’t have any other machine under ubuntu for compile kernel. What is the procedure for activating the ap-mode? I have tried: Echo A>/dev/wmtWifi and killall wpa_supplicant apt-get remove wpa_supplicant echo 1>$… is uncommented and reboot but ap-mode is not available (I have an errror message: ap-mode is disabled)

only echo 0 and echo A…before that the 2 other commands…no reboot

hello, I have done echo 0, echo A After: killall wpa_supplicant=>wpa_supplicant: no process found When I launch: hostapd -dd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf (this hostapd.conf is good It’s tried on a Pi2) I have:

wmt_loader
stp_uart_launcher -p /etc/firmware &
echo 0 >/dev/wmtWifi (reset/initialize)
echo A >/dev/wmtWifi (activate AP-Mode)

have you done steps 1 & 2?

also you must start hostapd on ap0 instead of wlan0

2 additional points:

  • After a clean boot, you dont have to use “echo 0”. It works when you do the first 2 steps that Frank suggests and then “echo A
  • Make sure you have the firmware files in /etc/firmware.

Indeed most likely you just need to use ap0 instead of wlan0.

Read this manual for original instructions.

ok it’s works fine, But it’s too bad we can only use with a single SSID!! I need to install a usb dongle for use a second SSID!

1 adapter = 1 AP

You can also use pcie for a second card

I know some adapter witch support 5 Ap by Adapter

Hello Everyone. I have a bad English.

I have a bpi-r2 and I wang to use AP-mode. Recently , I very surprised that a new image is released.

I using 2017-11-28-ubuntu-16.04-mate-desktop-bpi-r2-sd-emmc.img.zip. on eMMC.

I do this step by step.

However ,I can’t find the ap0 interface.

I try to “wmt_loader” , but

I try to “stp_uart_launcher -p /etc/firmware &” , but

Can’t open device node(/dev/stpwmt) error:-1

Anyone can help me ? Thank a lot.

You must do it in right order
