@Zogg-Baubas I upgraded mine by using the serial console over USB. To do this, install the driver from and follow the directions on https://wiki.onion.io/Tutorials/Connecting-to-Omega-via-Serial-Terminal then do the steps below per http://community.onion.io/topic/1154/omega-2-usb-firmware-install-after-brick-resolved/2

1. Download firmware file to USB flash drive
2. Rename the file to Omega2.bin (this works for both Omega2 & Omega 2+)
3. Connect PC to Omega 2 via device supporting USB to serial connectivity.
4. Hold the reset button down and power on the omega.
5. Select option #2, install firmware from USB.

I have tried every variation of method I can find online and can't disable the AP on my Omega2. I am running the b159 firmware. I have tried lots of manual edits to /etc/config/wireless and tried via the web console. The console doesn't have any kind of save button on the screen where you uncheck the box for Enable AP Mode so it never seems to take. Please help!

So... to get mine to connect I had to create a new SSID that ONLY provides 2.4GHz. My normal one does both 2.4 ad 5 on the same SSID which seems to confuse the Omega2.

@WereCatf I'll give your network config a try this weekend, thanks!

No luck with this one either. I tried the "fix" in the other thread in /etc/config/wireless but it didn't work either. Below is what I see whey I tell wifimanager to do its thing:

I have now updated the firmware on the plus via usb serial to 0.1.7-b140 and tried it with and without the fw rule changes, no luck. Trying the non-plus model now.

@Zogg-Baubas No change... any other ideas?

@Zogg-Baubas I took a look at the file and it looks as though everything is already enabled (contents below). Can you be more specific about what I should try?

Will do. FWIW, I have also just finished trying on my second unit. The first is a Omega2+ and this one is the regular Omega2. Both are running firmware 0.1.5 b130.

Just had a thought... during first boot it didn't do any of the blinky stuff the guide talks about. The red light came on for a few seconds and then went off. The amber one is on without blinking from the get-go.
