AlterX Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 Hello folks, I have been searching a lot on this topic without finding any solution. I have a bananapi and an edimax ac usb stick. I set it up to be a hotspot a few years back, it was working quite well and I stored an image as backup. To date, I wanted to re-use it but surprisingly, restoring that image on an SD does not produce anymore a working hotspot...this is awful/awesome since nothing has changed in between. This image is running on kernel 4.x (I have read on the forum that on kernel 5.x hotspot has problems) and I have also tried with the latest armbian OS based on kernel 5.x I don't know what to do anymore, since hostapd starts correctly, access point is enabled and up, but not SSID is visible to any device.... Is there someone that had a similar problem? Thanks Gianni
