rodolfo Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Relax - Wireless is solved for OPI ONE There seems to be a lot of confusion and missing information on how to access the dirt cheap OPI ONE wirelessly and the steps necessary to successfully use cheap Realtek USB dongles ( 8188cus, 8188eu ) with Armbian_5.10. This is a short summary of the needed materials and steps to turn your OPI ONE into a wireless client or wireless AP. There are NO custom kernels, custom modules or anything else needed, we are using stock Armbian_5.10 with stock kernel, stock modules and stock software to configure wireless access for select tested and working Realtek wifi dongles. Follow the steps without variation. Once you get wifi working you may adapt setup/configuration to your specific needs Prerequisites - OPI ONE with quality power supply 5V/2A - MicroSD ( 4G or higher ) with stock Armbian_5.10 installed per official instructions - Supported wifi USB dongle - LAN connection to host computer ( preferrably notebook running Linux ) for needed setup/configuration - WLAN-router accessible from host computer to test wireless connections. General procedure to set up wireless on OPI ONE - Set up your OPI ONE with basic Armbian_5.10 and configure a static IP LAN-address - Access OPI ONE via ssh from your host computer - Plug in wireless dongle and load correct driver module - check capabilities of wifi dongle (iw list) - configure wpa_supplicant for client mode - configure hostapd for AP mode >>> all configurations will be minimal without added automagic complexities ( bridges, DHCP etc...) OPI ONE wireless client Module 8192cu works with Realtek 8188CUS dongles and provides a wireless interface wlan0 ready to be configured in managed mode with wpa_supplicant. nano /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf ===================================== #8189es 8192cu nano /etc/network/interfaces (adapt to your network setup) ========================================================== auto lo iface lo inet loopback #----- lan interface ( standard maintenance connection via ssh ) allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.3.164 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.3.0 #----- Realtek 8192cu wlan interface client ( access defined in /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf ) allow-hotplug wlan0 iface wlan0 inet static address 192.168.2.164 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.2.0 broadcast 192.168.2.255 gateway 192.168.2.77 dns-nameservers 192.168.1.1 dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf ============================================ ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev update_config=1 network={ ssid="<your_ssid>" psk="<your_password>" key_mgmt=WPA-PSK priority=99 } After restarting OPI ONE it should be connected to your configured wireless router and accessible under the static IP.

( noname identified as 8188EU ) Wifi performance with both interfaces active is surprisingly good.

Crossing two walls at 20m distance from router signals were still usable yielding 20 (client) / 5 (AP) mbps. Troubleshooting Most of the problems encountered while setting up WIFI are caused by inadequate or overly complicated testing setups, procedures and rampant wild guesses. Keep it simple and solve one problem at a time. As a stable datum you should realize that the procedures outlined above DO WORK and have been adequately TESTED and RETESTED..

xwalter Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 you're right but I don't have the dongles to test , I'd like to test it with the wifi on board if possible , if not I will wait the dongle and never Iwill buy orange pi with wifi on board I'm not here to speculate , my job is automation engineer , I just start this adventure to make a porting and understand something with linux Be cool .....

rodolfo Posted May 21, 2016 Author Share Posted May 21, 2016 @xwalter I do understand your wish to use the OPI boards for something useful. I'll test OPI LITE's onboard wifi as soon as I get the boards, but having found a satisfactory solution with USB dongles I actually do not really care whether onboard wifi works right out of the box. Good luck with your project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Igor Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 If I will not get success i will try to install Kali , there are a lots of tools for Access Point (airmon etc ) There are no problems with tools but kernel / drivers.

lanefu Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I had to blacklist the standard realtek module in order to get things to behave with the patched one that comes with the distro lane@orangepione-2:~$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/wifi-blacklist.conf blacklist rtl8192cu Prior to blacklisting, it would just crash and reboot as soon as the wifi module loaded. This was using one of the little rt8192 dongles from adafruit running an armbian image I built from the repo yesterday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now I have the orange pi plus 2 with on board wifi and I cannot test your code ....I mean I have tested but I fail because I don't have the dongle . Anyway , don't worry because I will test soon and start to run android wifi client connected to orange pi and manage the GPIO over wifi ..... At the moment I'm installing all I need on armbian and it seems to run well , apache2, mysql, samba, phpadmin and more .GPIO's are running well too. Just the fuckin' wifi but I think positive and I exchange energy with the universe , so because I'm sure to get satisfations for the next future . ciao Walter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodolfo Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 Wifi is fixed on all H3 boards. I will push new update later in the evening where 8189fs and 8189es are updated. I made brief testing and AP mode also works on both chips. USB wireless dongles for OPI ONE continue working in Armbian_5.13. The internal wifi 8189fs for OPI LITE with factory antenna works well in managed and AP mode in Armbian_5.13. Performance tests with OPI LITE internal wifi show excellent results compared to USB dongles. Wireless connection is reliable and surprisingly performant ( 40 mbps crossing 2 walls in noisy environment, compared to 20mbps from notebook and 2 mbps from OPI ONE USB dongle ). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodolfo Posted July 2, 2016 Author Share Posted July 2, 2016 . Do You have any idea, how to compile this driver version? Sorry - cannot help you there. Pls. reread the instructions in case you would like working wifi. Obviously you started out somewhere and ended up in the boonies. To end this endless cycle I'd recommend you reread the basic documentations on getting started with Armbian, prepare a completely NEW current Armbian_5.15 sdcard and take it from there. Best of luck!

eddievxx Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Hi great tutorial. I have tried it twice (for the wireless client), but no luck for me. I have a cheap AliExpress wifi dongle, with the chip given as 8188EUS. Any ideas on if the different model could be why it doesn't work; or have I likely just done something wrong (twice)?
