Omega2+ fails to connect to wifi



  • Hello all.

    I face exactly the same problem. I tried your suggestions but no luck.
    I can only connect to Onion's AP but Onion cannot connect to my router, nor my mobile phone's hotspot (even with no password). If only anyone might suggest another solution.



  • Hi
    I also have problem to establish wifi connection to my office Mikrotik router. ApClie is not going up.
    But same time, on this same settings Onion2 links to Airlive AP and get IP address from Mikrotik router.
    I tried a lot of settings on Mikrotik, but nothig. ESP and notebooks connect to this router without problem.
    Airlive has WPA2 Mixed encryption.
    I tried change ApCliEncrypType to psk2 but it not successful still.
    Any ideas where is a problem? Anybody has description of wireless config parameters and options?



  • Hello everyone,
    I also have that problem.I had already updated to the newest framwork but still couldn't connect to my router.
    Anyone could help ?Thanks.



  • @Kostas-David , @Marcin-Nosek , @zc-Zhang

    If you are using a non-US router that uses channels 12-14, please follow the instructions by Rick Hogervorst and Larry Pinney here: http://community.onion.io/topic/1138/connecting-the-omega2-to-wifi-channels-12-to-14-for-non-us-users/4

    If this does not work, please post screen captures or terminal output when running wifisetup and scanning for available networks. If pasting terminal output, enclose it in a Code Block as shown in this guide: https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucketserver/markdown-syntax-guide-776639995.html#Markdownsyntaxguide-Codeblocks

    Please also post the output of running uci show wireless (remove your network SSIDs and passwords first!) and uci show network. Enclose these outputs in Code Blocks as shown earlier.

    Thanks,
    Gabe

  • Hi, I too have this problem. Brand new Omega2+ out of the box; unable to connect to Microtik CRS109-8G-1S-2HnD router wifi 2GHz b/g/n 20/40MHz HT Above, channel 3+7 (mixed-mode).

    I used my ethernet attachment and a network bridge to update it- the behavior is still present in 0.1.7 b139

    @Zogg-Baubas yikes! why the --force flag??



  • @Lazar-Demin said in Omega2+ fails to connect to wifi:

    @Zogg-Baubas yikes! why the --force flag??

    Hey, Administrators, when will you resolve the wifi connectivity issues that we're talking about on this thread?



  • @Lazar-Demin said in Omega2+ fails to connect to wifi:

    @Zogg-Baubas yikes! why the --force flag??

    Because without it I'v got the same result. Figured, as this particular Omega was useless in this state, it couldn't get worse even if bricked. In the end '--force' didnt achieve anything that unforced version didnt.



  • @Zogg-Baubas It seems that we have to find the solution by ourselves, the Admins do not help at all.
    Have you tried the new version of firmware?



  • @Zogg-Baubas I already instructed you in http://community.onion.io/topic/1178/wifi-connection-problem-with-omega2/21 how to flash the image correctly.



  • @Kostas-David - I tried omega2p-v0.1.8-b145.bin and still no luck getting the wi-fi working yet. I'm using a Mikrotik router and I've never had any issues with other devices.



  • I had also connection problems because i had special characters in my wlan password! After the upgrade of the firmware it also works with special letters!



  • @xmatt I also confirm that upgrading the firmware didn't help.
    @Gerald-Schalek my wlan password does not container special characters but the wifi does not connect



  • Status update: By installing firmware omega2p-v0.1.8-b145.bin I managed to get connected to my Android phone's mobile hotspot with no security.
    Problems:

    1. Omega cannot get connected to Access points with security enabled (WPA, WPA2 etc)
    2. No access to cloud, it is shown as "Offline"
    3. LED is constantly blinking, even after restart
    4. No internet access from the SSH terminal
    5. Sometimes there is internet access from Console (it checks for new firmware successfully.

    Still unusable...
