Setting up a hot spot on s905 box

Hi,

 

this is my first post so please be generous.

 

After much experimentation I have managed to to set up Armbian on an old Zidoo x5 box. I may add that neither the .zip or the toothpick method worked for me but finally got the booting sequence to run the S905 Autoscript by altering some variables using the setenv command through the serial interface.

 

I have installed several OS's and finally settled on the 20.10 focal 5.9.0 desktop image.

 

Most things work but I am getting problems with setting up an Access Point through the armbian-config program. I have left the default settings as proposed and was able to "see" the hot spot from my mobile but the system repeatedly refused to acknowledge the password "12345678".  Since this hot spot transmits on channel 5 and there is another strong wifi on this channel close by I tried to change the channel number to 4 after which wifi stopped transmitting altogether. Also the option to generate a HotSpot in Armbian-config disappeared altogether.

The same thing more or less happened with other OS's I tried.

 

Is there anything I can do?

 

Regards
