Thank you. I will check it out.

128

Then it seems to be hostapd which does not support the (standard) driver nl80211

129

Can something else be used to start wifi?

130

imho not, but maybe you can replace your hostapd with hostapd-binaries from ubuntu/debian

https://packages.debian.org/us/jessie/armhf/hostapd/filelist

here you see depencies which you maybe need also (for armhf): https://packages.debian.org/us/jessie/hostapd

131

after you make menuconfig to choose nl80211, you will build the driver to image when you are compiling.

openwrt will download code, when compile.

132

At this point i had continuously errors, guess server was not available for download. @nomadbeni i cannot testing until the TP-Link that i ordered arrived, cause bpi is now with alpinelinux my AP. @Jackzeng could you upload the sysupgrage somewhere else ? From Baidu i have always interrupts, its not possible to download from Europe… Thanks…

Thank you. I installed this, and managed to start wifi. I also installed LuCI and a new Wireless menu appeared. In it there are couple of radios and default wifi networks. I can search other wifi networks, but the access points that I enable from LuCI are not working. It says: Wireless is disabled or not associated

If I start the wifi using SSH it works, and when I close the SSH connection wifi still works. Also every time I start the wireles from SSH a new radio shows up in LuCI.

Hi Jack. I create wifi with your command. And it work.

But for some reason i don’t know. All devices disconnect a few minute later.
And hostapd print this:

What’s the problem? Could you help me?

136

Hello, I still don’t find the solution for this problem，but I find we can limit the speed to avoid this problem, here is my test command：

137

Thx Jack.

BTW. On my devices, stateless Ipv6 doesn’t work. Do you have same problem?

138

Hello, Could you tell me how do you config stateless ipv6?

I use ipv6 ping other device , it works fine

image

139

emm…

Our stateless ipv6 is config by an Ruijie S12010 switch.
Here is the config

ipv6 address (private Ipv6 address)::1/64
ipv6 enable
no ipv6 nd suppress-ra

So… I don’t know how it work. But other except R2.
I catch some packages and upload them in this topic
maybe it can help you

Hello, Did you try here?

142

I am using your sysupgrade image, and above problem is in your sysupgrade image.

143

looks strange…have your checked your filesystem?

Btw. @jackzeng is hnat working over br-lan?

144

how to check filesystem, there is no fsck command.

145

Hello，frank, I think hnat is probably not over br-lan.
