Morigal Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 Hello, I'm using the Wheezy Image with Kernel 3.4.107-cubietruck, downloaded 25th May 2015, on my Cubietruck. Working through the Guide "Enable Access point mode" I ended up having a running hostapd with a ESSID which my clients can see but can not connect. I tried with default config given by the image (ssid=cubietruck and wpa=2 with wpa_passphrase=12345678). I also tried disabling wpa (wpa=0). But no client can connect. Starting "hostapd /etc/hostapd.conf" prints root@cubietruck:~# hostapd /etc/hostapd.conf Configuration file: /etc/hostapd.conf nl80211: Could not re-add multicast membership for vendor events: -2 (No such file or directory) Using interface wlan0 with hwaddr 02:1a:11:f2:53:57 and ssid "cubietruck" wlan0: interface state UNINITIALIZED->ENABLED wlan0: AP-ENABLED wlan0: STA d4:8f:33:c1:65:74 IEEE 802.11: associated wlan0: AP-STA-CONNECTED d4:8f:33:c1:65:74 wlan0: STA d4:8f:33:c1:65:74 RADIUS: starting accounting session 5560CD08-00000000 wlan0: STA d4:8f:33:c1:65:74 IEEE 802.11: disassociated wlan0: AP-STA-DISCONNECTED d4:8f:33:c1:65:74 ^Cwlan0: interface state ENABLED->DISABLED wlan0: AP-DISABLED nl80211: deinit ifname=wlan0 disabled_11b_rates=0 The bold text is what I get, when a clients tries to connect. Any idea how to make hostapd work?
Igor Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 Cubietruck has one exception and only with kernel 3.4.x - wifi module must be loaded (/etc/modules) this way to enable AP mode: bcmdhd op_mode=2 I suggest you to use this predefined configuration - which you probably already set. /etc/network/interfaces.hostapd You need to have some DHCP server running on the network - which usually is. 1
Morigal Posted May 23, 2015 Author Posted May 23, 2015 I changed my /etc/interfaces according to your suggest and it works. Thanks alot. 1

Igor Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 You need to use rt-patched hostapd: hostapd-rt /etc/hostapd.conf-rt 1
