arunprabhu.1 Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I'm new to cubietruck and linux as well. I used the default build for CT i.e. 3.4.107. The wlan0 was working fine. It was using bcmdhd module for wireless. But I had to move the latest version 4.0.5 for the availabilty of sctp module which was not available in 3.4.107. In 4.0.5, the wireless interface is not being detected and it has brcmfmac for wireless i think. Is there a way to implement the sctp in 3.4.107 or make the wireless work in 4.0.5 ? please advise. best regards, Arun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I tested yesterday, it's working normally. Are you using a proper network configuration? If you made only kernel upgrade, you might need to remove: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arunprabhu.1 Posted June 12, 2015 Author Share Posted June 12, 2015 Hello Igor, The wireless interface comes up and able to associate with an AP using the 4.0.5 kernel version. Now I see that eth0 or wlan0 does not get their IP from dhcp. (the /etc/network/interfaces config seems to be fine) Am I missing anything ? regards.

Igor Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 If you want to get an DHCP from your router, than you need to use bridge: /etc/network/interfaces.hostapd auto lo br0 iface lo inet loopback allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet manual allow-hotplug wlan0 iface wlan0 inet manual iface br0 inet dhcp bridge_ports eth0 wlan0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arunprabhu.1 Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 Hello Igor, thanks for your reply. Is this a limitation in 4.0.5 to use hostapd configuration to get the dhcp working ? because with interface.default in 3.4.107, the address was assigned to the interfaces without any issue. My intention is not to use CT as an AP but just yet another device which get its IP from my DSL router. regards. arun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Aha, one more possible problem is also uboot. Install that too. Poslano z mojega MI 2S z uporabo Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arunprabhu.1 Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 Hello Igor, Looks like installing other packages (dtb and headers) helped. i'm able to get addresses from dhcp server. thanks for your support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
